EU import: difference manufacturer, workshop warranty?

Hi, =) I would like to give my girlfriend a scooter for Christmas, and on www.cycleshopkoeln.de (I also live in Cologne) I discovered the Piaggio ZIP II 50 Cat. DT and Piaggio Diesis 50 for 1,399,00 each, as EU imports. By far the best prices I have found so far, but what does the addition “EU imports with 24 months workshop warranty, no manufacturer warranty? Is this a big disadvantage? And which of the two scooters would you rather recommend? I have read that the Diesis is not an original Piaggio (but from a purchased Spanish manufacturer), and therefore tends to Zip… Would I be very pleased with answers…thanks :] Glak
