    Saw the Enzo at Macari's and it got me thinking, how can I justify buying it....

    Well, as it doesn't have a front number mount plate it doesn't legally require a numberplate i'd save 8gbp a day on congestion charge.

    Anyone else got any ideas before I approach the bank manager?

    Its a work of art, a rare pieve of automotive history?

    Its unlikely to DEpreciate, and might even apreciate in value?

    Sell the F430 then you can borrow less!. Why own a Ferrari when you can own a ''Super Ferrari''.

    To be honest I'd been thinking how I could justify it - but I bet you could make a fortune taking people on hot laps etc round Donnington. There isnt an Enzo in the country doing that

    Rule: If you have to justify it, your head is ruling your heart....so do what I do, just buy it if you really want it and worry about everything else after you've ragged the nuts of it!!

    There is no justification!!...Because there clearly doesnt need to be if you want to own a small piece of a legend callen " ENZO" And its a fantastic car too!!!


    My Bank manager said "NO" :)

    You can also avoid the expense of the front numberplate. That's another £10 saved.......... ;)

    So did Macari's let you take it for a test-drive around Wandsworth?

    As I put in the other thread about Top Gear when you see the new Murcie you might not want an Enzo. Its the most stunning looking machine around. Maybe not quite as fast as the Enzo but at £195K compared to £500k plus its a bargain. More agressive looking than the current model and a fair bit faster.
