I haven't taken a picture but they have added decimal points in the appropriate places to this now.
Edit to add I'll get a picture should anyone want me to.

I don’t understand why they do this.
Is it just pure speculation to see if someone is mad enough to buy it? They can’t seriously believe it.

Maybe it is a psychological trick...? Word gets around that some idiot is trying it on so lots of people (like us!) go to have a look, somebody likes the look of it and gets in touch with the vendor who then offers a huge discount for a quick sale?

The price usually halves every month/week until it gets to a realistic level.

£118 for 2 cups of coffee and 2 pieces of cake at Grange-over-Sands yesterday!!!!!
Fortunately, I noticed the mistake before swiping my card... £11.80!
But, given the location, I wonder how many of the usual clientele would notice the “mistake”?

Amazed there’s enough of it left to sell
Ah, excellent value 😜
Reminds me of my youth. My Dad bought a red 127 when I was a teenager (late 70s). Probably got it at auction - he did enjoy an auction.
The damn thing kept having punctures 😱
I learned to change a wheel that year - I think about 8 times 💪
He later had a service, & on collection, the Service Manager broke some bad news to him: “I’m sorry Mr W., your car appears to be a cut & shut” (made up of two cars carefully welded together🙄)
Body alignment was the reason for the punctures 😳
It had to go, & I doubt he got much for it….

There are some dents on the frame, but it does not have the slightest negative effect on use.

That's not just dented. That's properly buckled.
