I've had a share in and been flying the lovely G-BCSL since the late 1970s. Spin prone it's not.

It has no luggage space.
It has no heater.
It cruises at a mere 90 kts.
It will make your hands dirty.
It has a short duration.
It has a noisy and draughty cockpit.

It is, far and away, the best aeroplane I have ever flown in my 30+ years of aviating bar none (and I've flown a few). Fly one if you haven't already - you will be amply compensated for the minor shorcomings listed above.
