Whatever you choose you should get an instructor at your local flying field. That type of plane would usually be used as a second or third plane. Although it can be used as a first plane. If you get a trainer you will learn faster and have less chance of getting discouraged. If you plan to learn without help then definately get a trainer. Check out the list of trainers by RCken linked below.
