Bit late to this, but I'd put good money on that being a crack and not a mark in the paint. I've seen a few just like that
We'll never know for sure (in this case) since it was stolen before I could investigate.
Anyway, the replacement is here:-
2010 Tempo in slate (frameset was £50 cheaper than the identical 2011 version) with Brooks Swallow (Ti), Profile T2-Aerowing bars, Open Pros, GP 4 Seasons (25mm), Miche chainset/BB, Tortec Ultralite rack, SKS mudguards, Condor branded Carbon Forks.
I've got 6 days to make sure it's settled down before I give it to Filthy to transport to Paris for me for PBP.
Will get a better photo when I get a chance. Lovely smooth ride from Condor back to SE1. Reassured me that my 20kg hackbike is one of the reasons why the majority of people have been overtaking me on my commute recently!
Not a completely smooth collection, it had the wrong saddle (Brooks Swift Ti instead) and wrong handlebars (Profile Airwing that drop away from the stem which completely changed the hand position I'd been fitted for) but I'm happy that Condor sorted it all out in the shop there and then and swapped over to the right bits (including fitting the MarSAS foam padding to the new handlebars under the tape). Also not worried since they'd said it wasn't going to be ready until next Monday, so getting it early was a bonus. They also had trouble sourcing the carbon brake levers (Tektro RL970) so I've got a set of cheapo jobbies on there that shouldn't make any noticeable difference.
