UK v USA built R48

Not trying to cause trouble but is the Cimex as good since production moved your side of the pond.
Reason I am asking is I have 2 quotes one for a hardly used UK built R48 and the other for a new R48.Can not make up my mind.

The English Cimex machines were built well. So are the new ones assembled in the USA. We haven't seen a very big difference between the last machines from the UK and the current US machines. I liked the build quality of the UK machines; the US machines are good too. I think you're essentially comparing apples to apples.

P.S. Since you say the mentioned that the used one is "barely used". And since used machines are generally less expensive. My thought would be to go with the used machine.
