Compare private helicopters from any production year by mission fit, purchase price, annual ownership cost, runway requirement and practical European range. Prices are adjusted to the suggested aircraft year rather than treating every example as financially identical. All figures are indicative estimates that require verification.
Recommended purchase ceiling€200k
Expected annual cash cost€51k to €55k

No exact match, but there is a route forward
That brief asks one aircraft to bend a little too much physics (or accounting). There is no honest exact match, so these are the closest workable directions.
Try changing:
Raise the purchase budget to about €290k, or allow an older/smaller aircraft.
Plan around 1 people, lighter baggage/shorter fuel legs, or a higher-payload model.
Shorten the typical leg to about 200 nm, accept a fuel stop, or choose more range.
The models below are near-matches, not recommendations that satisfy every filter.
Does not meet your brief: 193 kg of realistic payload is too tight for 2 people, bags and useful fuel.What still works: Flies your typical 250 nm trip with fuel reserves to spare.
Does not meet your brief: 300 nm advertised range does not leave planning margin for a 250 nm leg.What still works: Carries 2 people with baggage and useful fuel.
Does not meet your brief: Its estimated purchase price is €282k.What still works: Carries 2 people with baggage and useful fuel. Flies your typical 250 nm trip with fuel reserves to spare.
