Tora fork above the Dart is the bit that matters most in the spec. Brakes are a bit better too. Looks to be worth £100 more.

Thanks all.  I'd not thought about a white bike before, but no problem with this...  :)   I think the 19"... probably, gave good bar clearance; the 21" although had Ok clearance - felt too big, although slightly better 'saddle to handle bar' room.  I think have a relatively long bod relative to legs for height (6'2")
