Advertising OTE for a non bonus/commission job.

The company I work for has put up a job advert stating a salary of £25k O.T.E.
Our basic salary is just over £21k. Last year I did 35k, but that was only because I did a shed load of overtime.
My question is this, advertising On Target Earnings is fine in Jones that rely on commission or that offer bonuses, but my job offers neither. Just overtime (which isn't guaranteed).
So are they allowed to inflate the advertised wage like this?
