At the moment I fly a TB20 for touring, fast, 6+ hours endurance and good on anything over 600 M.
I have just over 50 type in the log book and if I were to suggest one that you should buy it would be a Cessna Reims Rocket 172.
I hate the look of them, I hate flying them, I hate the smell of the cabin heater,
BUT they are probibly the best all round touring aircraft ever built. (and with the right driver good for 20+ knots crosswind)
You should pick up one for under £40,000.
