Hello guys! I'm a bit new here and not very experienced either, but I wanted to get a good vintage road bike to start with. So the seller is offering me this bike but I have no idea if it's a fake or not, because he seems to know nothing about the model, the year it was made or anything else. Hence, I have no idea how much it could be worth. Here are some pictures. Please help me identify what bike this is. Thank you!

Are there any markings identifiying it as a Colnago apart from the decals, like Colnago cutouts in the lugs or BB shell or stamps on the top of the seat stays or tops of the forks?
I am not an expert on them but would want some comfort it is genuine as well as the decals.

Looks nice, what is he asking, if you don't mind me (us) asking ?
Sadly, none of these can be seen on the bike, so I guess the frame is not a Colnago. Is it a columbus then?Are there any markings identifiying it as a Colnago apart from the decals, like Colnago cutouts in the lugs or BB shell or stamps on the top of the seat stays or tops of the forks?

He's asking 240 pounds for it. Here are some additional photos of some components, if it that's of any help.
