Is it a Scam

Seems very cheap for a 2005 225 e-tec

The date on the photo looks like it's been fudged.

Easiest way is to ask to go and look to see it running. If you can't do that, run a mile

I think it's a North American pic.....

Purely on the fact that the building/workshop it's in appears to be of wooden construction (most workshops / garages in UK are brick), plus the beer cooler and gas cylinder in the background don't look like they are from UK.

Only one way of finding out, go and have a look, you never know! some people sell things well cheap because thats around the price a dealer quoted for buying the item.
