Would definitely suit an IMC/IFR rated (or aspiring) pilot with touring ambitions but equally suited to anyone who wants to step up from a 172 without losing the great visibility and those much-loved benign handling qualities.

NB N-reg aircraft so an FAA will be licence required to operate it outside the UK. (A relatively simple paperwork exercise to get an FAA piggyback licence.) On the plus side, if you are not already IFR rated, the FAA IR is a substantially cheaper option compared to the UK offering!
NB 2 All training (eg night/IMC/IFR) apart from Ab-initio can be conducted on this aircraft.
