what "faults" with the Tiger are you meaning? most issues are small and being sorted -and seem to be due to "having to" push the bikes out the factory door due to demand.
and do you mean MCS as your local? I've found them to be ok, if a little expensive on servicing (but that seems to be all Triumph dealers it would seem). Two Wheels in Edinburgh were recommended to me but the distance was a nuisance so went to MCS for my Tiger XC (which I love - 13,000 miles in 14 months, and totally different to my old thou). they have a few second hand tiger of various generations in the showroom too.
all new Japanese, especially Yammies are expensive, but Ride-on (used to) carry a large second hand stock (not been in for a while).
have you thought about about the SuperTenere?
or for leftfield, one of the BMW F800 twin's? the streetbikes are a surprise and the baby GS (the F650GS twin) is loads of fun in the twisties and great on a commute.
