2004 Ferrari Enzo at auction, bid sits at $2,700,000 with one more day to go

Collecting Cars, the globally recognised online auction platform for enthusiast and collector vehicles, has launched bidding on one of the most iconic hypercars of the 21st century, a 2004 Ferrari Enzo, certified by Ferrari Classiche and finished in the marque’s signature Rosso Corsa. This very rare, UK-delivered example comes with less than 15,000 miles from new, with just one more day to go, the bids have already reached £2,000,000, which converts to a little over US$ 2,600,000 … and over the next hours this is expected to rise even further. With only a handful of UK-market cars ever delivered, and even fewer offered publicly, this presents a landmark opportunity for collectors seeking provenance, rarity, and prestige, and make no mistake, this is still a LHD model, which opens up a worldwide market for this one of 399 Ferrari Enzo.

Back in 2004, this Ferrari Enzo came into the UK through Meridien Modena in Hampshire, the current keeper owned this car for nearly two decades, subsequently this specific Enzo is still in a very impressive condition, naturally with comprehensive service records. Its matching-numbers 6.0-litre F140B V12 engine is paired with Ferrari’s six-speed F1-style automated manual gearbox, delivering 651 bhp and a 0–62 mph time of just 3.1 seconds. The most recent service was completed by Autofficina in June 2024, with its last MOT certificate issued in July 2024.

Inside, carbon-fibre racing seats are trimmed in Nero leather with Rosso centre panels and embossed ‘Cavallino’ emblems, complemented by Rosso leather detailing across the dash and steering wheel. The cabin features extensive visible carbon-fibre, including factory-fit Rosso leather on the steering wheel centre – reportedly seen on just two of the 277 Rosso Corsa examples. Rosso dials, carbon paddles and LED shift lights complete the purposeful, F1-inspired interior. Externally, the car rides on twin-spoke 19-inch BBS alloy wheels refinished in a darker silver, over carbon-ceramic brakes. The lower bodywork has also been refinished in matching Rosso Corsa, replacing the original black finish for a more cohesive aesthetic.

Certified by Ferrari Classiche in 2016, the car is accompanied by its red book and original handbook pack. Even though some damage was sustained early in its life, it was swiftly and fully repaired by Ferrari’s official bodyshop, Carrozzeria Zanasi Maranello. The Enzo remains mechanically original, with all work documented as part of its official provenance.

Originally launched in 2002 as a tribute to the company’s founder and a showcase of Formula 1-derived technology, the Enzo followed the F40 and F50 in Ferrari’s halo car lineage and was the final model to feature a naturally aspirated V12 without hybrid assistance. Its carbon fibre tub, pushrod suspension, active aerodynamics and stripped-back interior made it one of the most advanced and visceral supercars of its time. Drawing directly from Ferrari’s era of F1 dominance, the Enzo was designed to celebrate technical leadership while delivering a pure, high-revving driving experience – a marked contrast to the hybrid and turbocharged hypercars that followed.

Commenting on the auction, Edward Lovett, Founder and CEO of Collecting Cars, said: “The Enzo is one of the most important Ferraris of the modern era – a car that captured the spirit of early 2000s Formula 1 and marked the end of Ferrari’s analogue flagship lineage. It even laid the groundwork for the track-only FXX programme that followed. For collectors, the chance to acquire a UK-delivered, Classiche-certified car with this level of provenance and originality is exceptionally rare, and a reminder of the Enzo’s lasting significance in Ferrari’s story. With bidding already off to a strong start, I’d advise anyone seriously interested not to wait!”

With the officially quoted total of 400 examples produced – the 400th car off the production line intended to be gifted to the late Pope John Paul II – the Enzo remains one of the most exclusive and important Ferraris of the modern era. With many now held in long-term private collections and seldom offered for public sale, especially in the UK, this particular example stands out thanks to its low mileage, Ferrari Classiche certification and long-term single ownership.
