That’s more than the average price of a house in some parts of the UK.
The advert states that this engine is ‘new old stock,’ meaning it has never been fitted to a car.
The engine is even in the original crate it was stuck in after being built at Ferrari’s factory in Italy.
The buyer could choose to put the engine on show as an example of one of the best-looking and sounding petrol engines ever.
Or they could choose to put it in a car and enjoy using it as intended.
The advert reads: ‘Complete engine with inlets, airbox, ancillaries and engine loom.
‘If mounted for display, the engine could be used as a fantastic centerpiece in any collection.
‘An otherwise unobtainable piece of Ferrari history; a rare opportunity to acquire a new old stock replacement unit from one of the marque’s flagship models.’
The Enzo’s engine produced 651hp at 7,800rpm, helping the supercar get from 0-62mph in 3.1 seconds and on to a heady 217mph.
