Jenson Button’s Enzo for sale

Jenson's a car guy. A proper car guy. On these pages alone we've witnessed an old Ford GT and ultra rare-groove Porsche 911 2.7 Carrera RS formerly owned by the 2009 Formula One world champion come up for sale.

Now, here's one to top the bill: Jenson Button's Ferrari Enzo is coming up for auction.

We're informed that Jenson bought his Ferrari Enzo in the same year he won his world championship, which is a fair treat considering that at the end of 2008, he didn't even know if he had a job at all, before announcing a drive in a car many weren't expecting to come good. But boy, did it come good.

The Enzo meanwhile, needs little explanation. A full-fat 6.0-litre V12 mounted in the middle, sending 660bhp and 484lb ft of torque to the rear wheels wrapped up in a carbon monocoque body was the preserve of the very privileged; initially, 349 were slated for production, with invitations going out to existing F40 and F50 owners, all sold before they were actually built. And for good reason too: 0-62mph took just 3.6 seconds, and at full whack it'll hit 217mph.

Following more requests, Ferrari agreed to build 50 more, before a 400th Enzo was built in 2004, and donated to the Vatican for charity. That's Ferrari for you.

And here's another nugget: Jenson bought the car with just 1,180km on the clock. Coys auction house are now offering his Enzo - with Jenson's name still on the V5 registration document - with 1,300km on the clock. In three years then, Mr Button has clocked up just 120km - or 75 miles.

As expected, it comes with full Ferrari service history, the ‘Classiche Certification', and is expected to sell for between £850,000 to just under one million.
