Rain stayed off long enough to give this a wash today, gf got it a couple of months ago. Nice car.
Reverse camera, climate, sat nav bluetooth stereo thing, more than enough to keep her happy.
1.6 petrol, does 10 miles a day so was no point spending extra on the diesel.

i can never figure out if i like these or not. i think they need wider, bigger alloys on.
anyway, enough about that...
this is a proper odd choice of car for the girlfriend of john who seems to be the most central, never do anything different kind of guy ever.

Last 3 year old corsa had about 13k miles on it, and that's only because she was doing 50 miles a day for a term.
This will prob have well under 10k when she gets rid in 3/4 years.

Alloys are 17's I think Ben. I didn't have much choice in what car it was so doesn't matter what I'm like

Not sure on the appearance of these but they are well spec'd.
The Mrs bought an 8 month old Qashqai N-tec+ on Friday and the amount of kit it got is fantastic.

John, with the crap you come aross with half the time I never thought you have a girlfriend.
But if she is only doing 10miles a day, why that car? It's lovely don't get me wrong, I really like them but couldn't of gone with a 'normal car'?

When I look at them, it's like the designer didn't know what they wanted to create.
Shall I make a off road vehicle, maybe a small city car or even a large family car.
And then just put all those things in to one machine and created the look of the Juke.
I think the white makes it look like a company diesel. 
But over all I like them, some lowering and more simple pattern alloys for me though.

Like the barriers at my front door for added effect barnes?
Is your mum and dads house a council one?
I would class that as a normal car Nathy, she liked the look of it so got it, wasn't much more to it than that.

i thought the same, but johns house isn't council, it's nice.
lots of houses in scotland look like that. it's as if showing brickwork wasn't good enough for the jocks.

I really don't like the look of these cars.
But it's a new car, so should be reliable, even for a woman, haha
