This aircraft Gran Lusso seems to tick all the boxes .
As they say in Australia she’s the full bottle .
It has the potential to be ideal long hauler for two people and luggage or four place some local touring .
Impressed with going to jet A or diesel fuel
Given the enviro pressure and I’m guessing if you can outlay the cash for this
Chariot you can afford a new motor now and again .
I reckon it’s every Private Pilots dream to own such a machine .
Given the right climate will sell well .
