Default Nissan Juke R in Scotland this Weekend

Just got a mailer from my local NHPC that they have the Juke R on display this weekend.

Its at Macklin Motors Nissan in Darnley Glasgow. G53 7SD.

Dont know if i'll pop over & see it but thought it would be good to see.

Still bloody ugly though.

See loads of the standard Jukes around here, don't know why so many people seem to be buying them unless they are giving them away

"fair play to nissan for building something fun"...Erm, didn't he say at the start that it was built by RML.

Still credit where credit is due (to RML...not Nissan )

The Juke has taken over the Ugly Mantle from the Fiat Multipla.

Its engineering at its best if anything. Looking at stats its nearly a second slower to 60 than the current MY12 GTR but i dare say that it would have it in the twisties

Why? It's heavier and has higher COG....

As an engineering exercise hats off to RML Same as the Micra a few years ago with the 350Z V6 in the middle Must be fun to work for them though

Love the car personally.

R34 GTR is still the best GTR though.

Subjective, evolution says the R35 is the best GT-R. I used to love the R34, but times have moved on.

Did it not cost around £250,000 to build?

Litchfields have normal ones in their development programme. Very interesting that they have used GT-R software tweaks .
