I agree with the last two posts. (Warren and Sasless)

The L4 is great value for your dollar.

Good power, especially in hot and high conditions.

Good speed, our L3's on low gear scoot along quite well..when light, much better than a 206, not quite as good as the 407.

Good range, better than a 407, not quite as good as an Astar.

Very safe and economical ....and

Will probably fit into your existing hangar. 3 and 4 blade aircraft (without a blade folding kit ) are hangar hogs.

If I had the money, I'd be buying an L4 for my personal use. The chances of that happening are slim to none though
