Main trade-off	More cabin and payload than short-body Mooneys with strong efficiency, but ageing systems and modifications complicate valuation.	Excellent efficiency at a low purchase price, but fuel tanks, gear and decades of modifications require specialist inspection.	Bonanza handling and speed at a lower entry price, but modification and restoration quality dominate value.
