Going to the plant and seeing what they offer is an opportunity few on this site can manage. That is an excellent idea as you can also get a feeling for the quality of the machines. Given their Austrian pedigree the quality should be quite good.
As to used equipment I certainly do not have any idea as to the market for used machines in Austria. Do you have a family member, friend of a friend, etc who is a machinist or tool maker that can give you some advise? Like cars the used machine market can give you the find of a lifetime, or the worst clunker one can imagine. It may be worth the extra money to contact a machine tool dealer and see if they have anything in stock that may suit your needs.
BTW, welcome to the asylum!
