In my opinion, the Falchs are a great machine, but they aren't for everyone. You need to think about servicing, parts, etc.. You need to replace like for like, parts are expensive apparently (dont quote me though)
Falch machines are top of the line, they look and are professional and they definitely work for people like Lee and Darran, but they aren't for everyone.
You can get a decent Lombardini or Kubota engine driven machine for less, and then you can service them yourself (or get any local service guy to do it) and not have to use Genuine Falch unloaders etc.. and you can swap pumps, build exactly what you want. You can also add a hot box for about £600/£700 and there you have yourself exactly what you want, for less money.
As i said, the Falch machines are top notch, but you need to work out what you need, why you need it and how much your going to use it and get somehting that suits you, not just because of the name.
