Silly Sticker Question
I have a 2007 Sport as well. There is no X in Europe, or not in the Netherlands as far as ik know. Not much to customize either. No lockers no tow group. We used to have a High Sport; that' Sport/X with airco (yes airco is an option over here) and power convience group.
I suppose it has to do with the small market segment overhere; they have sold 12 JK's the Netherlands last year. Because of all the taxes we have here, a 4d Sahara will set you back about 60000 euro's (that's almost 80 grand). So the Jk is not your average student driver...

Got my New Sahara last year for just £11,850.00 ($18,000.00) which included £2000 'old bangers' Govt allowance and £9,000 Chrysler UK discount.
Couldn't resist



New ones now currently going for approx. £24,000 ($36,000 inc sales taxes @ 17.5%)
I think you need a revolution......

Yeah, when I was a backpacker living over in Germany (about 15 years ago now) I bought an old car for about 400 bucks and thought "wow; cheap transport". Went to register it in my name, & was horrified to find out that all the taxes, charges, inspection reports, pollution tests, compulsory insurance, etc would have cost me something like well over $3000! (and this was for a rusted out old 1980 Fiesta hatchback), so God knows what it would have costed to put a brand new car on the road with insurance. And then on top of that gas costed like 3 times what it did back home (that's why they're all diesels over there; the nice big V8 Mercedes & BMWs are exported to cheap-gas countries) And from memory, Germany was considered cheap for car ownership costs compared to other parts of Northern Europe including Holland and Scandinavia.
I think sometimes here in relatively "low tax" countries such as Australia & the US we forget how expensive car ownership is in many countries, where only the very wealthy can actually afford to buy & run a motor vehicle.
