It's sold on eBay a while back for more than that
There was a thread on it here
Looks like a proper bargain but I suspect all is not what it seems

Can I just weigh in with a ‘hmmmm’ - if it seems too good to be true it usually is.

Subtle signs of danger include too cheap, privacy number, and Stoke on Trent is not in  Cheshire.

One wonders if a substantial deposit would be asked for over the phone, as someone else is on their way to view the bike.
