The private pilot training in the US includes 3 hours night so every trainer is "night capable." I don't think Cessna built any 150s or 152s without nav lights and a landing light.

I was going to reply earlier, I figured the hard part would be keeping the cost under $100/hour. Five years ago I was looking for light plane to putter in to keep current between jobs. Seems all the flight schools in the Dallas/Fort Worth have junked their 150/152s for 172s, glass ones at that. About $140 an hour plus a 5 hour checkout for the Garmin toy. Finally found a school that used steam gauge 172s for $99/hour.
