That car is very nice but that's a lot of money to ask for a 100e?

He'll be lucky to get half of that asking price. Unfortunately. It's beautifully done.

(I need that choke knob, but not worth me buying the entire car.)

What type are you looking for, I have a few spares here that are not perfect but good enough to use in a daily driver.

I've been looking for the type on the left (fluted?). You can PM me details if you're willing to part with that one.
For some reason the Starter & Wiper knobs were in pretty good condition when I acquired my car ('59 Thames), but the Choke knob was chewed down to a nub, with the "C" long gone.
