    Some dealers still have some stock to sell, but it as vanished from the website and no promotional literature is avilable from Nissan. Shame, I liked its looks! (The Juke, less so).
  • I have just replaced my Corsa with a Juke and I have to say it is a cracking little car. I am finding MPG as good as the Corsa on my daily travel to work.

    The higher driving position is great.

    Have to say they cost a fortune to service around £300 so buy a 3 year service if they still sell them at £299.

    Well, to be fair that's not that amazing, the smallest engined Corsa barely beats my 1.8 Vectra on fuel economy, 36mpg v 34mpg.

    I thought they stopped selling the Cube?

    I never even realised they sold them as native UK cars, I thought they were all imports, then I spotted the foglight appeared to be standard.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    You have been panning the Juke all through this thread for poor dynamics, poor handling, being 'average' and - lets get this straight - you drive a Vectra 1.8?????? :eek:

    You couldnt make it up!!

    What?

    I got a 4 yr old car, all electric, aircon, a debt collectors boot and tonnes of features you don't even get in German saloons, all for £3000. That's compared to small cars of the same age costing at least double that price. It's an extremely practical car and that is ALL it needs to be.

    My purchase made financial sense.

    It's my every day barge and it does a bloody good job.








    When I want a car that drives and handles well, I open the garage and I find one of these:

    Was just expecting more from a car connoisseur like yourself.

    Pans the Juke for being average, but drives a vectra.

    Oh the irony!

    Not really, but whatever floats your boat......

    I don't see the point in spending large sums of money on a car that ain't nothing special.
    When I bought the Vec, I walked into a dealers and paid cash, I could quite easily afford £400 a month in car finance, why would I spend stupid money on a decidedly average motor? If i'm gonna spend that sort of money, I want something special, not a Micra on stilts.

    Great thread- made me smile, at the start someone pointed out that this would turn into a Marmite thread.

    My thoughts- Nissan Juke- shocking, but each to their own.

    Right...but OP was talking about spending a quarter of that...
