I noticed in the description on the English page of the FPM that the 410/414 have proven german technology. But only in the Serbian version of the site under "history" is that explained:
"Saradnja sa IMT FMM – Knjaževac u proizvodnji priključaka za motokultivatore po licenci AGRIA WERKE – SR Nemačka zaključena je 1974.godine"
"Promena privrednog ambijenta od 2000-te godine, dovela je do proširenja tržišta i kontinuiranog povećavanja učešća izvoza u ukupnoj prodaji. Kako bi što bolje odgovorili zahtevima tržišta uveden je sistem kvaliteta ISO 9001/2001. i uspostavljena je kooperacija sa firmama KUHN – Francuska, Breviglieri-Italija i AGRIA-Nemačka."
So almost certainly these machines will be copies made under license from the German Agria company. Which suggests at least that the design is good.
The mass of those FPM machines is almost what the Goldoni Special series has (and they are still available from Goldoni as "My Special" or from Labinprogres Special).
My personal bias is that the heavier machines are better.
How much of a price difference are the Lombardini motors vs the Kama motors? What warranty do the sellers offer you?
