I would try the DNAT/SNAT iptables targets, along the lines of:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 195.198.111.x \
	-j DNAT --to-destination 65.114.4.69
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 65.114.4.69 \
	-j SNAT --to-source <your external IP address on this machine>

The second line makes the real server send it's replies through the same
path (otherwise it will reply directly to the client)

You have to enable/allow forwarding for everything to work.
