here are pics the original owner sent me of the bike built up. the wheels he put on there were temporary, one of the reasons he was selling was because he couldn't afford to shell out on proper disc wheels.
plus! its a pretty good deal, you get a carbon fork (like it or not haha) thats normally 100£+ new, 105 calipers which are 60£+ new, and a good stronglight headset which also comes in around 50£+ new... and then theres of course the frame...
I agree - I think it's a steal.
There is no need to put a disc on it. You just need to be aware that your choice of tyre is limited. For time trialling, 19mm or 20mm tyres are preferred, and these frames were built with this size in mind.

All you need is a 700 x 20 tyre (eg one of these http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Continental_Grand_Prix_4000_Tyre/5360019477/).
