Cannondale CAAD 8 Tiagra

Supposedly the best aluminium frame on the market. My mate has the 105 version and it's far more lovely than the Allez Sport it replaced. See if you can find a way to get the 105 for under £1000 or the CAAD 10, my mate managed it with a cunning Evans 10% off voucher
Alternatively, check out Ribble.
I have a Ribble Winter SRAM Apex picked up for <£700 and I didn't even bother with CTW. Ribble can't be beat from a price value perspective, check out the special offers if you're not too bothered by the brand name

Rose Bikes (of Germany) is also worth a look, no CTW but prices low enough that it really doesn't matter
