Hello, after lurking on this site for some weeks now i decided to sign up.

I bought my TJ at the end of may this year, after tryng out a friends tj which i instantly fell in love with. It's a 2001 TJ 2.5 SE with 74000 miles on it. The car is completely stock exept for the wheels and tire that i bought for the car, 15x8 American Black Rock wheels with 31x10 tires.

Here are some pictures of the car, the green jeep in two of the pictures is my friends.

Thank you, yes the nature is beautiful. But im guessing you have similar geography in some states in the US, your country is huge :D
 
Wow, welcome! I don't know where you are off-roading there, but it looks beautiful!

There seems to be a lot of tj's in the south of norway, not so much around where i live. In the town where i live i know of 3 tj's including mine, there are more jk's around. One of the tj's in my home town is the green one in the pictures in my first post, it's owned by a friend of mine. It's the jeep that turned me onto TJ's.

Yeah, the TJs seem to be pretty rare in Europe in general. In the United States, you see them everywhere.

I know we've got a member from Sweden and Switzerland too!

Welcome!

I have to ask, though, which TJ is supposed to be the SE? I only see two Sport editions, one silver and one green...

For some weird reason they put the sport sticker on all TJ's in europe. Both of them are 2.5

EDIT: all sport editions came with a 4.0L, or am i wrong?

I did not question the sport sticker until someone told me they put the sport sticker on all TJ's in europe, so i checked my vin number and it said i had a SE.

That's interesting! Sounds like someone probably just put a Sport sticker on your SE!
