The 210 is a wonderful aircraft but a completely different beast from the 172. I progressed from a Hawk XP to a 210 and it took some time to catch up and then keep up with it then be proficient.
Don't let that put you off, but its not the sort of machine you can do a check out (or even a couple of hours in) and then go off into the wild blue yonder.
Take the opportunity if its there, just be safe... and keep some of that power on right into the flare
