Question Should I learn on Tigers?

Hello all pilots out there.

I would like to put this question to you, because I have had a couple of different opinions and would like to get a general feeling. therefore I would appreciate your reply.

For many years I have been waiting to be in the right financial situation to begin studying for my PPL. Now the time has come and in the next few months I intend to begin my lessons.

I have always loved classic aviation, and have just had a splendid weekend flying with "Classic Wings" at Duxford. I'd highly recommend them!!!!!!!! This was my first experience at the controls of the Tigermoth and it was really fantastic.

As I live in Cambridgeshire I am in the position where I would be able to learn from scratch on the DH82a or on the more usual Cessna 152. It is not my intention to try and get my PPL as quickly as possible, more to take time learning and enjoy it as I go along.

So the question is, in my position what would you do
