I did exactly the same as you looked at old and new machines for a long time. Ended up with a 1210 David Brown/Case, great machine does all i want but as usual things to do on it. Looked at 5's too, they were my next best bet but 4000-5000 dearer. I would say try an old machine that has a good resale value. If you run it into ground (unlikely) sell it off and try the new. New machines in that price range are not built like an older ones. At the end of the day unless your running it all the time, there is little value in new machine. Have you tried clearing sales yet? Keep looking, once you buy one you will find that you have 3 more options come up!
