The T210M you will be flying in was made in 1977 and has a 300hp turbo engine. Think of it as the BMW 7 series (or the A8 for Audi fans) of small planes. Retractable gear, and usually has a radar dome/pod suspended under the right wing. One of the more interesting features of this aircraft is that it is a "high-wing", but doesn't have a strut that goes from the middle of the wing to the bottom of the fuselage like all of its Cesna cousins.

You will most likely not go over 10,000ft as this is not the pressurized version of this aircraft.

the panel is most likely something like this:

I grew up in the 210's little cousin, the 206.
