+1 for a 2nd hand one. Used bike stuff re-sell value is at rock-bottom, I would rather go for 2nd hand bike witth Sram Force or Ultegra than a new bike with low gruppo spec.

Honestly 10 - 12K will get you a sweet ride barely used. Full carbon 105 at least and very resellable if you hate it and you'll have a frame that you can build on. I've seen so many good bikes on the Hub and Gumtree for that kind of coin.

 

Personally I'd look for 2010 Giant TCR Advanced. Great frame (better than the 2011 / 2012) decent kit (black 105) and good enough wheels (Rs20's).

 

Can't really go wrong and because they look good and ride well there will always be a better market for them when reselling.
