This is not a Sharp, but korean DAE HO Carnival DH-02

Thank you Metad

Has this Model ever been for sale recently?

Is this a  European Model?

Never seen this model before.

nor me....pretty rare i would say!

No, it's not an european model. It was made in Korea, and I guess only for domestic and east-asian markets.

By the way, this video is korean also, see at 0:07, the ticket with korean, not japanese or chinese, hieroglyphs.

I've seen them only on ebay, a couple of times.

Which Country ebay have you seen this model, Metad ?

Sorry, I don't remember the country, and I checked the date of the pics I saved on my computer - it was back in feb of 2007  

Here is another "version", this time it's called "Jumbo" (below the tape buttons), probably because of the new set of the speakers 

Note the VU-meters, gracefully modified with LED's instead of the needles.

Difficult to understand the model number DAE HO_Carnival_D..??

Like the look of the speakers, white with dark surround. 

What size are the speaker's in the above photo?
