PPL vs Microlight

I started my PPL a year ago, and thought I'd be finised by now, but bad weather, several changes in instrustors and a change of flying school have also slowed the process down. Now have done 20 hours with no solo yet.

Was gutted when the flying school put the price upto £182.00/ hr in a 172. Personally I think that's a bit steep requiring at least another £4500.00 to finish!!!

When I was looking at schools a year ago I had a trial lesson in a Microlight and really enjoyed it, though thought I should do the JAR PPL as it was a higher qualification.

Now thinking of going back to the microlight. With 20 hours under my belt in a 172 would it take many more to get the microlight lisence?

Cheers,
