      If I had the choice of this or a Nissan Juke I'd still choose walking

        It does indeed look like a porsche. The teenies answer to the 1970's Ford Capri perhaps?

                      Guys,

                      Rich and I have had an ongoing argument about the new Nissan Juke. I like most things about it and Rich can't stand the sight of it.
                      I have been following the Juke since concept for a few years. I think it ticks most boxes for Irish driving conditions, compact, high vision line, quick in turbo version, advanced in 4x4 version and 'cute'! Nissan were brave in their design and went out on a limb.

                      Interestingly the Juke was aimed at the young executive types BUT it has transpired, in Japan at least, that its the over 50s / 'empty nesters' that have taken to the Juke in droves ..... maybe that explains my attraction to the car. Now if only they would offer a version with the Nissan Leaf's electric engine I would jump at one!

                      HOWEVER (Rich)! The ten contenders for the 'Irish Car of the Year 2011' were,

                      BMW 5 Series

                      Kia Venga

                      Nissan Juke

                      Nissan 370Z

                      Opel Astra

                      Peugeot 5008

                      Peugeot RCZ

                      Renault Fluence

                      Saab 9-5

                      Skoda Yeti

                      and the winner was !

                            ........ bring it on! I'll stick to my guns and go as far to say the Juke will be a classic in time!

                                Definition of JUKE
                                transitive verb
                                : to fake out of position (as in football)

                                probably alteration of English dialect jouk to cheat, deceive


                                Juke Stain

                                The blue jean colored marks found on the white walls after a ghetto ass apartment party. It occurs from mens blue jean covered ass being smashed against a wall by an overly aggressive woman jukeing too hard.
                                "I need to figure out a way to get these Juke Stain's off of the walls or else I wont get my deposit back."


                                It's already a classic......a classic mistake

                                      Maybe the Juke is a joke but its one that I'm enjoying. I see them on the roads now and like them more!

                                      So it looks like the Juke is also a retro BUT an improvement over the original!

                                          Now, now Tom let's be clear about this. I love Macs.....

                                          But they leave a terrible after taste. Similar to looking at a Juke
