I would go for the Takumar, just for that. Unless you really want close focusing abilities of the Flektogon (I don't know what the max magnification of the Takumar is).
I'd say the DA 35mm is better if you want to do things like landscape photos, where sharpness and saturation are important. You can also think about the DA 35mm macro for a true maco, but again with modern rendering. If you prefer an older look, I think any of those lenses would deliver (although I only have the Flektogon)

I got my Flektogon 35mm f2.4 for around 60euro, plus 5 for the little case (Koffer) in Germany. It looked like it was in great condition, but recently the aperture ring stopped cooperating, so now it is either wide open or stopped all the way down, depending on A/M switch. I'll have to get it fixed. With old lenses, even "mint appearance" is no assurance
