Except the -20. We've had people (even students) flying
the -20 with less
experience without incidents. The advantage is that
with 70h, you can
progress for quite some time until the ship limits
the pilot.
BTW, I have one for sale :-) :-)

70 Hours and no Bronze C - rule out all the ships
you
have suggested - they are probably way beyond your
capability if not your wallet at the moment!
You have a budget of £35k -get yourself something
like
a Discus, LS8a, LS4 - a nice standard class ship and
rack up a few hundred hours and a few thousand kms
cross country before even contemplating the ships
you
have mentioned.
No I would include the 20 as well - it's not as forgiving
as these other types - have seen a few spun in by low
time pilots. Anyway I would heartly recommend you get
an assessment from your chief flying instructor on
your capabilities regarding your flying abilities and
a suitable ship -they will be in the best place to
give advice.
