Suspiciously so.

Hmm, the showroom selling it is literally 15 minutes or so from me, might go take a look just in case it's a misprice and he hasn't noticed. >w>

I'd imagine the low price is just there to summon enquiries, as its a classified ad you've no way of buying it at that price anyway other than calling them up to discuss upon which they'll perhaps take more realistic offers somewhat closer to its 6.5k rrp?
Its like sticking a photo up of a complete bike at a funny price and then announcing in the text that follows that you're only actually selling the seized front calipers or similar in this particular auction! Typical Ebay.

It's a mis-type.

Worth buying if you could get it at that price

Maybe the VAT needs to be added?

Hmm... VAT (£650) brings it to £3,900, plus first registration bribe to DVLA (£55) brings it to £3,955. Off the top of my head can't think of any other fees they could add...

£3,955 is still too cheap, has got to be a trick like CheezyBeaner suggested just to get people's interest.

Still, might take a look anyway so if that was their aim it worked.

Are items allowed to be offered to retail customers at prices that don't include VAT?
Even if VAT needed to be added then that would only add £639 to the price.
