Depends on your preference I guess.
White color is more visible so that goes for the older one.
I love the new LED style headlamps and they are generally providing better illumination - so far it is 1-1
A touring plexi is useful but cheap enough to don't give a second thought - and both have over 10k km's but the difference is not too big (I put in that amount of miles to my scoot in less than two months in season) so it is still equal to me.
The Costa vario is providing very good acceleration at the expense of increase maintenance requirement and their pipe is high quality. So it is down to you - in case you prefer a newer bike with stock configuration go for that while in case you'd anyway install an aftermarket vario buy that.
P.s. I had a not too pleasant experience with Karasna recently as a seller - so while the quality of the bike could be absolutely OK - I'd go and try to bargain the price down to 600kHUF.

Good to see that we are thinking on the same path
... as we are from the same country...and have the same name btw (Tamás)
When im around making the decison i will take you up on your kind offer on checking them out.... and would like to "pick your brain" about front suspension change and such more advanced stuff...
The J Costa parts alone net about 200K HUF (maybe less mabye more) so that one looks a better money spent atm.

Option A for me, but I would want a standard exhaust fitted first.
