    Today I'm in a Nissan Juke. This is a car I've always disliked and never understood. If you run the Nissan Juke fan club, probably best if you don't watch. Ignorance is bliss, after all.

      @@e_lifeuk7916you may not like the designs but it's hassle free motoring and they don't collaborate with the Europeans with exception of the latest Supra.(no comment there) 🤐Honda Lexus and Toyota are the top three performing brands in terms of reliability and customer satisfaction. Nissan is essentially a Renault so there's a lot of French electrical baggage that's comes with it. If you want a real Nissan buy one from the 90's K11 Micra, skylines, Pulsar GtiR, 200 zx/Silvia 300 Zx/Fairlady or even the current Nissan GtiR which is made in Japan. 🇯🇵🗾😎😁

    I think the Juke is very much indicative of the times we are living in: Ugliness is lauded, being aggressive is a must, and elegance is an obsolete concept. This is why this car is so popular. My neighbor loves hers and is on a 3rd one by now. To me, it's simply an aberration. Not to be outdone, Toyota decided to come out with the CH-R, another beauty.

    I admire your straight to the point honesty when reviewing cars and have to agree the Duke is one real oddball, I've never seen the appeal to be fair?
    I like your sales technique, most car dealers would be singing it's praises and telling us how wonderful they are and how enriched our lives would be having a Duke in the family!😁
    Reminds me about an Alfa Romeo I rang up about, the seller spent around half an hour explaining how I really didn't want to be buying his car, how bad it was, how unreliable it was, how expensive the parts were, how much grief the electronics had given him, how many times it had let him down......I couldn't believe how determined he was that I didn't end up with his money pit of a car!! What a top bloke, still never worked out why he was trying to sell it though? 😁👍😎

    Think you might have this in stock for a while after this review ! Sometimes cars that have radical styling are popular because so many cars are boringly similar, suvs are generally big ugly things hard to distinguish one from another and after the original mk 1, I'm convinced the Golf design team just have a meeting to decide what enlargement setting to put on the photocopier when they want a new model. Another great honest review.

    Well the styling and the size of the juke are it's major selling points - the juke basically started the super compact crossover segment, and most other manufacturers after that tried to make their own juke (and I believe none had the same success) - lifted super compact crossover with untrivial looks - C3 aircross, 2008, ecosport, captur, kona, stonic, mokka, 500x etc.

    I have watched and enjoyed all your reviews and agreed so keep up thee good work, but I have to disagree with a lot of this review.
    Having owned a Juke while living in Canada which was an AWD version with 186 HP I can say that it was absolutely brilliant in snow conditions, the three position select-able switch for Front wheel only, On Demand and all time AWD facility was excellent, also in dry weather the 186 HP engine was no slouch either.
    I do think you are correct about the front styling but the side and rear views I think are not bad at all, there are a lot worse looking vehicles out there, it would appear that with over one million sales the styling seems to appeal to a lot of people, I think that maybe people are missing the point, the styling was meant to be something fresh and different?
    We did find it to be a practical, totally reliable vehicle
    Also perhaps we should give Nissan some credit for designing something a little different to the numerous bland vehicles out there ??

    3 years ago folks thought the Juke looked pretty wild. Now, stack it up with several of the Hyundai small crossovers, it doesn't look so odd. Heck, I would rather have a Juke than a Toyota CH-R...or whatever it's called.
    Unfortunately, another interesting Nissan that was ruined in the U.S. by having that darn CVT. (There was 1 model/trim level that had a manual transmission, but they are/were extremely rare over here.)
    BTW, I thought there was a new Juke recently released?

    Everybody have different taste. Im in love with the juke and so many others as you've already stated.You should see how many people have them in my state. I had one and would still have it if I I had not messed it up. I got it practically new and it lasted well. Now im looking for another one. They don't make them anymore and the used ones have to many miles on them and are very expensive. But when I first saw the juke in 2010 I told myself I would own one and I did. It was different and that's what I loved about it. I don't know who the designer is but Thank You! I received so many compliments on my cute little juke. Hopefully I'll have a second chance at owning another one.

    The only thing I could rent in an emergency last year was a Juke. Horrible thing. The engine revved at a ridiculously high rate. I kept looking for more gears, but there were none. It was ridiculous. We needed to carry some luggage, but it was really awkward to pack into the oddly shaped rear compartment. Everything he said in the video resonated with me. The only thing this scores highly on is its very easy to loath.

    One of the best and funniest car reviews I've seen, Matt. I've loathed the styling (if using the word styling here isn't a contradiction in terms) of the Juke since the first time I saw it in the metal. Thankfully, I've never had to drive a Juke, but I was once a passenger in the back of one and I'm still receiving counselling for the experience.👍😎

    Its almost a scandal to sell it. JC would probably crowd surf the funds to be able to watch it be dropped from an airship into car supermarket and it would be a well deserved end to an absolute POS.

    Although not my favourite car I like when car makers are bold enough to try a new direction. I think the car looks funky and fresh and lays an interesting design template for future iterations. Hardly anyone liked the Porsche Panamera of Cayenne when they first came out but with each new version the cars were progressively tweaked until now, for me, the Panamera is now a stunning looking vehicle. And I can already see that happening with the Juke. The latest version has kept the recognisable shape but tweaked the design in certain key areas, and it now looks much more aggressive and purposeful, a bit like a jacked-up 370z.
