both nice

I would have the blue one out of those two

Both very similar. Pinnacle is a touch lighter, may be due to the wheels.

Cannondale synapse aluminium range...Tiagra for £800 and 105 for a bit more may be worth a look

A nice low offer on something like this maybe? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Giant-TCR-Advanced-Ulteg...

I picked up a Specialized Tarmac for under £800 that was listed for £1000.

Very nice frames too, well worth keeping and upgrading over time.
