Surely you could easily sell an enzo without putting it on ebay?

The 400th Enzo was presented to the Pope by the Ferrari F1 driver, and the 7 time World Champion, Michael Schumacher. The car was then auctioned off by the Pope and the proceeds were given to charity

Not before he'd donut'd the arse off it round the Vatican courtyard

that cars worth about 450-550k

ferrari did hand pick the first owner,,,, but after that they got no control over who owns them!

when they sold an ex F1 car to frank mountain he had to sign something to say he will offer it back to ferrari before he sells the car on! but of cause this was italian law, so not legally binding in the uk!

btw frank is also the guy who crashes his masser MC12 on 5th gear,,, and is also the guy whos enzo had a bump in london

I'm reminded of a back page ad from Viz years ago. A GOLD figurine of Tony
Hadley offered for sale by 'Murray Mint purveyors of international tat'!...One quick look at the last few items this 'gentleman' has sold (ie crap) makes me wonder how on earth he's come by something like an Enzo.
Mind you I did have a Carrera GT 15 years ago...................924 Carrera GT that is.

be interesting to see what it goes for. joe macari has had 2 for sale in recent months, the first one was Ł600 000, and the last i seen advertised was up for Ł650 000, which i think is Ł200 000 more than ferrari sold them for new. just hope it doesnt end up in the wrong hands, or something like this might happen.
