Hello everyone,
Greetings from good old Germany.
I still do not own a Jeep Wrangler but it´s my intention to buy one this year.
During our last summer holidays in Italy my wife and me visited a dealer´s Jeep promotion on a street festival, just for fun.
“The next car we will buy is a such one”, she said to me after we had just entered a Jeep Wrangler. Wow.
Being always a car nerd my whole life long, I agreed.
Weeks later, back in Germany, we test drove a JL Unlimited Sahara 2.0 and felt in love with this car.
Currently, our fun cars are a Corvette C4 and a C6. Something totally different, I know.
I still struggle a little bit with the decision, if my first Jeep shall become a JLU Sahara or a JLU Rubicon.
I hope to share some useful information here.
Hello everyone,
finally, I bought a Jeep Wrangler.
You should know, that it is not so easy to get a new Jeep Wrangler in Germany that meets your expectations / configuration.
Why?
Well, the European market seems to be too small to consider the customers individual requests.
FCA defines the configurations of the cars that they ship to Europe, not the customer.
If you visit the German Jeep homepage, you could believe that YOU as the customer are able to configure a car but that is not the case.
With that "wish list" you can contact your local dealer and he checks the pool of cars in stock and if a car with the requested options is available.
If that is the case, you are lucky, if not, you have to accept that some options are missing or that some options, that you don´t want, are included.
In November 2020, I found a car that could fullfil all my option requests. I signed the contract.
The next problem was, to register the car.
You should know, that the Berlin government (the greens and the reds) has a strict "anti-car" policy.
Therefore, they do not really suport the admission offices.
It can take some weeks to get the registration for your car.
Now, I got it and I´m looking forward to drive the car.
It is a Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited Sahara 2,0 T-GDI with the Sky-One-Touch-Roof in Granite Crystal Metallic (manufactured in June 2020).
