My Ride: My ex-ride: EU '08 LCI 520dA. Space Grey, Sport Seats in Black Leather/Fabric Anthracite, Sport Steering Wheel, A/C with Extended Features, Hi-Fi Speakers, Cup Holders, Cruise with Braking function, Folding Rear Seats, Xenons, Park Distance Control.
That is 49.900 Euros but a minimum of 51 k with delivery and winter wheels.
The car costs in Finland 38 900 including 22 % VAT !
Then the car tax of that amount for a CO2's (149 g/km) car - is 11 000 E!
But the car in the picture, with M sport costs more than 70 ke...

My point was the taxation and the E60 ad picture.
A E60 M sport as in the picture with 172's and with
Metallic, Comfort Leather Seats and Logic7 and 18" winter wheels
costs some 15 - 20 ke's more than the price in the headliner.
Is it fair to show a 20 grand more expensive car in a commercial
that the ad sells for 49,900?
BTW. One Euro is about 1,42 USD.

Pefectly normal practice(maybe not morally)...all car manufacturers do it....they want you to upgrade from base model to what you want.
What does "alkaen" mean? If is "from" ?
