Hey Guv,
As far as I'm aware, the only differential in limitations an 'NPPL' imposes instead of a 'JAR PPL' is that flight may occur only by day and within the United Kingdom. I can't see why it would resrict one from flying something like an Arrow or other complex, although someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
When it comes to weights however, it's probably worth checking the UK AIP.
Cheers, Jack.

2000 kg MAUW and no more than 4 POB (incl. pilot) and 1 piston engine. A 6-seat a/c would be OK if POB was 4 or less (incl. pilot).
VP, RG, TW etc are all OK following differences training as is an a/c with a max cruising speed greater than 140 KIAS following differences training.
See LASORS Section A Appendix F page 61 et seq.

If you read the EASA consultation document regarding recreational licences, it is possible to infer there may one day be an NPPL(H). About the only positive thing I can think of for being in the EU.
Let's hope so
