An SR22 in a good condition is way more than even this TB20, and the wx capability is similar (comparing no-TKS for no-TKS, no-turbo for no-turbo).
The market for capable IFR tourers does seem very strong, I wonder if Cirrus is dragging up the market? Creating a pool of better heeled pilots willing to consider alternatives to Cirrus?
Yes; the current owner flew it a lot more than the previous. But still very little for a TB20. It’s a very capable IFR aircraft. Not in the same league as say a Jetprop (FL270) but capable of UK to Dubrovnik, etc. For 30hrs/year, you can clock that up going from Blackbushe to Sandown for a greasy burger on some sunny Sundays, in one of these 
I have a reason to believe that it should be in a good condition, but equally it is priced at the very top!
G-TBGT is back for sale, this time as N36GT and for $325k.
Done only 295hrs since new! 13 hrs/year…
Half of it in the last 5 years, though. Which is 35-40 hours/year. I don’t know the average yearly hours flown by pilot owners, but it should be in the same ball park I think. I personally struggle reaching that amount with my workload, family duties, bad weather, etc.
I know the seller, sort of personally, and it is widely known that he spent “unlimited money” on everything. He also had/has a TBM.
The price inflation on these planes is utterly amazing. For many years, I would have got £150k for mine, and it has full TKS which is a rarity; basically impossible to install now, and was quoted at some €60k. The rest of the avionics difference is worth about 50k, and arguably not needed for European flying, VFR or IFR.
No money was spared but it lacks lot of love (flying)
It seems like quite a bit of money was poured into paint, avionics, a scimitar prop. Interesting that the engine hasn’t had a top or full overhaul.
I posted that because the thread was referenced in another thread yesterday
Holy thread resurrection Batman!
