Before I give my opinion I'll state that I am no expert. I have never, ever flown a Cessna (in fact, the only A/C I have ever flown is the Grob Tutor and the PA38), so I cannot comment on any Cessnas.

I'm currently doing my training in a Tommy, nothing wrong with it, the club I'm with has a particularly nice example, I like it. Great visibility, seems to fly quite nicely. Cheap to learn in too.

At the end of the day it's up to you, you can save money initially and learn on a cheaper two-seater or, if you can afford a little more, learn on a four-seater type you'd be likely to fly after your training.

Cheers
