Much as I would like to buy your very lovely bike (the lack of £1700
prevents) it might help those who might if you put the size on........

Sorry all. Size is 56cm. I am 5 feet 11 and it's a perfect fit if that
helps anyone.

Isn't the 56cm too small for one who's 5' 11"? I'm that size myself and have
a 58cm Trek 5500. The Trek OCLV frames are meassured form BB center to top
of seat tube. The top of seat tube extends about one inch above the top tube
so it's actually a 57cm ct. I asked Mike Jacoubowski at Chain Recation
Bicycles in LA, who's probably the shop that sells the most Trek frames in
the world, if I could use a 56 frame and he said "no way".

Why not take the bike when you move and try and flog the missus instead?

i'm 6ft and have owned both a 56 and a 58cm size 5200 bikes. 56 was at
the maximum in saddle & handlebar position but was comfortable enough.
I ended up with a 58cm frame and that feels pretty perfect for me.
