I would say if you can afford it go for it, especially if thats what you want to own and fly.

One caveat, make sure you have an instructor capable of teaching you correctly and not a newbie hunting to gain alledged complex time, although personally I would debate that a C182 is complex.

A longtime ago I took a new prospective PPL for a trial lesson in a single piston aircraft who was extremly keen to get a licence. That single engine aircraft scared the life out of him so much he went out and bought a Cessna 421 pressurised twin to continue his PPL, he was sent first solo and completed his qualifing cross country in that aircraft also gaining his UK PPL in record time and being issued a licence for multi piston only, so everything is possible with the right mindset.
