Thanks for all the comments so far. I'd love to buy a 206 but I'm afraid my budget wont go that far and with regard to the 12 years, I plan on buying a second hand one with hopefully 5/6 years and 300 hours so hopefully that will work for me. Take on board your point re keeping it outside, which wasn't going to be my intention and yes fuel on site is a must, pity its avgas! Thanks CRAN for the HJS price list and any other comments would be most welcome. Thanks.
