There's essentially two options:Amal S wrote:Wow, Where can I buy it from?
- find a used machine and fix or restore it yourself; or
- buy a fully restored machine from a restorer.
For the right person, the first option can by very satisfying and highly enjoyable. For another kind of person, the second option lets you make espresso right away. I've done both, but in the past few years I have been pretty much in the second camp - although my New Year's resolution is to finish fixing up my non-working machines and grinders .
FAEMA Lambro's were made for many years and were relatively common machines so there are plenty out there (again, relatively).
I don't want to make any recommendations as to specific restorers of these machines, but many professional restorers post on Instagram and/or have websites. Prices for fully-restored Lambros seem to start around 3000€-3500€.

I found one cost 3500€ but another question, Is it plumbing in or a tank? does it need 3 bar minimum pressure.

Regular waterpressure is needed.2-3 bar will work fine I guess.

Added a temperature display to the ViaVenezia. Temp-surfing guesswork is now gone. I'm still surfing, but I know exactly when to start brewing.
