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 !

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

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.....
They're delicious
But they leave a terrible after taste. Similar to looking at a Juke
-
They leave more than an after taste.
