It's registered in Germany but doesn't have a competition
number, how
are they chosen? Where can you register one?

What did you end up getting? Congratulations!

Found a lovely DG 101, price was low but needed a new radio so it's
fair.

Just remember, you now do DG take-offs. Set the trim, and leave the
elevator alone as you roll down the runway. It will lift off very nicely
on it's own from the two point attitude. If you try and raise the tail
first, and then try to fly the main wheel off, you will get airborne only
briefly before it bounces back down. That's how you can tell a new DG
pilot every time - they bounce the take-offs. Have fun. It's a nice
glider.
