I will drop a ticket in about the geo location, that may be a spanner that forces linode and beta test fail.

Linode Japan have "local" APNIC IPv4 and Vultr Japan "american" ARIN IPv4 address, correct? How's with IPv6?

I actually would be very interesting in buying a London Linode LES, since I'm only using it for VPN anyway. I'd value better peering more than performance.

Yeah probably ovh (kimsufi) for dedicated. I'd personally go with a 2GB UK Linode or NL RamNode VPS though for the faster disk speed if 3TB (Linode) or 4TB (RamNode) is enough bandwidth.
