it as a project and don't care about money then sure, why not

I offered him less than $5200 for it. Had a reply but nothing that told

I've had mine 11 years now, For some years their price seemed to stay
fairly constant but I see they're going up now: the going price in
Germany for an airworthy H.201 with trailer, FLARM and modern instruments
seems to be 17-18 K Euros.

Well, Martin, those have Cobra trailers, Streifeneder wing root fairings and winglets. Along with a good, one color, bright white finish. This one has none of these things.
