Default Safir ARC (Modeltech) kit?

Hi, a friend has one, I believe it's early to mid 90's vintage. 74" span, and I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with this airplane? It sold for $320.00 but I can get it for 150.00, so I don't think it's a bad deal. Just wondering about general impressions, etc. I know Wolfgang Matt designed it, so it must be pretty good, aye? It must be just before the 2 meter ships came about? I flew pattern for awhile in the mid 70's w/ a Tigertail, and Banshee, and a Troublemaker, but not since. Just thinking it should be o.k. for getting the rust off, and a little practice, but nothing serious. What do ya'll think? Thanks, Tom.
