Nissan Juke SUV (2010 - 2019) 1.5 dCi Shiro 5d (2012/62) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Initially I just loved the styling but with so many around it tells me that anyone who can discriminate will be happy to drive something not purely Teutonic!

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Everyone seems to like it.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Certainly - it is impossible to beat the combination of great dealer and excellent motor car.

What are you likely to buy next?

Another - maybe a Nismo or, if not, a Tekna and perhaps I may upgrade to a Dig-T.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£0

When did you buy the car?

October 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

The dealer was happy to meet my requirements for a new Juke with leather trim - suggested the Shiro and made it affordable. What is there not to like?

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I have previously owned one of the first Jukes and was impressed enough to want another.

What was the dealer like?

Excellent in every way.

What's it like to drive?

Simple to drive; superb gear-shift which is better on the diesel than the old petrol model. That is enough to warrant the purchase of a diesel.

What's it like to park?

Maybe its only 'bete noir'. The view through the C-pillars is tricky but it has a reversing camera so it seems to be better for that addition.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing. Like the first one, it has performed perfectly.

What's most practical about your car?

It sits high and entry is easy - it accommodates all we need including the grand-children's toys, books and clothes.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Don't really need the gadgets but it appears to lack nothing. Heated seats are becoming essential and it has those.
