R22 to AS355N?

Ok, before you all bite my head off, my only request is you go easy on me!
I have searched LASORs and this site for some answers but to no avail!
I am in the closing stages of completing my PPL(H) and once completed would like to immediately buy and train on a 3000+ hour AS355N.
As a business owner I will be using the aircraft to go to meets etc up and down the UK, and love the idea of multi-engine turbine flying.
I realise that there will be a MASSIVE differences training from Robbie to dual turbine, but I am going to hour build on my own aircraft. Do I need to carry an instructor for 100 hours or something?
I am not looking to carry fare paying passengers at any stage, can I do type conversion on award of my PPL(H) or are there massive implications for such a move?
Any help much appreciated!
