I have a Juke. Fully serviced, reasonably clean, I do use it every day. Never let me down either. Good little car! Yes, it's a bit marmite but I like it!
I just realised that these videos also help you remember and document whatever needs doing to the car to get it ready for sale! Much better than going round with a pen and notebook and you get to share it with us too.
Everything is radical and completely removed from what made cars a piece of subtle art to admire. However this will always be the Ogre of not a great bunch E.g Mundane modern cars.
I've got a Nissan juke and you get alot of specs on it , your right what you say though I'm not bothered about cars I've never owned a German car I just want a car to get me from A to B , I look after mine and for the money it's a good car which suits me , good video mate.
I have a 2013 Nissan Juke Shiro (top of the line limited edition model, even better than the Tekna) finished in gorgeous deep aubergine-like metallic color. It has a 1.5 dCi with a 6-speed manual. The odometer reads 325k kilometers and from those 325k, I've done 300k kilometers. One of the most reliable cars I've had. Really nippy in the town, really great for long distances considering the size.
The manual Juke with a 1.6L gasoline is a pretty solid car. I've seen them with 250K miles and very little issues. The CVT transmission models are known to be a nightmare on these cars.
Nissan in general are known to be one of the worst for CVTs. Toyota are the best at CVT transmissions they've been doing them for 25+ years and their hybrids all feature CVT. If you want a CVT get a RAV 4 rather than a Juke.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say. They look best in either dark red or gunmetal grey. The Land Rover Discovery 3 - now that's a complete eyesore.
I'm not a fan of the Juke but when I buy second hand cars, I try to buy close to the top spec and this has a few nice options. Nice to see you coming out on top again!
@@azagrial I always thought if you were going to buy a juke why wouldn't you just buy a qashki it's like a micra on the inside and a big car for the bottom half.
My wife loves them, so i bought her a 16 Nismo with 50k on it. Im actually surprised how fun it is to drive and I've become attached slightly! Already serviced transmission, replaced headlights and fully detailed it. Threw a intake on it too and sounds nice! But yeah they are always beat to hell here in the USA also 🤷 but not mine...
I really enjoyed this video. 😊 I do disagree a bit about the appearance of the juke though. I find the biggest problem with the design of the juke is that it needs a strong colour such as bright yellow for it to really work. But everybody bought them in dull colours like silver so they seem weird rather than as a design statement.
Just want to say thank you, Matt, your videos have helped me immensely in looking for a new car for the wife. Case in point: Went to see a Focus yesterday. Immediately spotted the car was from Inverness (cold, salty roads in winter, near the coast. Found sand behind the headlights, found a rotten engine bay, knackered suspension, bad paint repair, suspicious oil speckling on areas of the engine that has been missed in a steam clean that suggested very hot, high pressure oil failure of some sort, I noted the tyres and brakes down to the date codes (to be fair, the tyres - 2 Goodyear and 2 Autogreen, all with good tread - were the best part of the whole car!). Ultimately I decided that I didn't even want to test drive it since the suspension was shagged, and that it was a rot bomb waiting to happen. Without your videos (and those of Salvage Rebuilds UK) I wouldn't have spotted half of that stuff. So thank you, your videos are extremely informative and helpful!
Great cars. Solid and reliable. Economic around town but a bit of poke on the motorway. That's why they sell by the million. Not popular with the poncey Top Gear Tory-Boys of course, but the sales figures speak for themselves. Glad to see you're a convert Matt..😂
Love these cars, had two of them, a red one I gave to my mother, and now I have a white one in n-connecta spec on a 66 plate , both with the 1.5 dci engine, which has been fantastically reliable and punchy enough when needed. The ride quality is awful for a car with raised ride height and the interior quality is questionable too. I'm 29 and have been lucky enough to have had brand new audi's and bmw's in the past which where both impressive as expected. but I love the cheap and cheerful nature of the juke, the low running and servicing costs. You can park it anywhere without the fear of someone dinging it. I think they make a a great second hand purchase but could never buy one new.
If you are using an iPhone use the scan feature in notes for your receipts it’s really good and creates a pdf ready for emails! Cheers for the videos 👍
Basically comfortable? They're completely shite, with such a short wheelbase, on today's roads they drive like one of those nodding dogs the tasteless have on their parcel shelves or dangling from the mirror. Of all the cars I've driven in the last decade, only two come close and they are the Toyota CHR and the Vauxhall Mokka. Totally crap, all of them.
See all 4 corners?!!🤯 Got to be one of the worst driving experiences for viewpoints I've ever experienced.. Maybe okay if you have rear view cameras and front parking sensors but having driven one with neither it truly is an awful car to drive and park..
@@martinclark9636 The lights have marker points on them (front and rear). Makes parking easy if used with the mirrors, but yes of course sensors and cameras make everything easier.
We had a 2014 diesel Juke, the engine bay were a superb living quarters for my next door white cat. There were 1000s of left over hairs keeping the engine warm from the weekly chills of a Northwest English winter. Thought it were great car to drive, never cost a penny till it got swapped for our new HRV. I'd have another
Hi, Matt. I've just received my mug and t shirt that I ordered from you and wanted to say how impressed I was with the quality of the shirt. Great fit, lovely material, nicely finished. Wasn't sure where I could leave this comment so apologies if it's in the wrong place!
Matt you used to do your last video after it was sold so we actually knew the profit or loss confirmed, Personally I’d like to see this included back into your video’s, cheers pal
My dad has a base model Juke and it is ALWAYS filthy, even after a wash it gets dirtied like 2 days later. You could swear the thing has a gunk magnet as standard
Glorious to hear that you're the new president of the Nissan Juke appreciation club. And it's so wonderful that you're organising a cars and coffee only for all the hardcore Nissan Juke enthousiasts.
That's the sort of vehicle that could be be leased on the Motability scheme for 3 or more years, fully maintained. Then they're sold off at auction to the main dealer networks for used car stock at the end of the scheme. You can often get higher spec models than usual if a dealer has surplus stock, or a manufacturer is due to bring out a new model.
The front looks like it could store three magnums of wine between the headlamps. My neighbour has a 14-plate Qashqai with a similar paint job, dark purple maybe?
Nissan Juke, you either love them or hate them, there is no in between. In my case, I love them, the 1.6 DigT with 147kW 240Nm allways gets me smiling. The looks is also different, with all other cars looking almost the same, you have to look at their badges to identify. With the Juke there is no issues, it is in a class of its own and I love it.
Juke….. Bought one for my daughter for her use while at Uni here in Canada. Bought as a 3 year old, low kms, excellent condition in and out, $13500 for cash. She had the car for 4 years while doing her Vet’s degree, changed the oil annually at ‘Great Canadian Oil Change’ in Saskatoon, needed a battery somewhere along the way and sold about 30000kms later without needing anything else, not even tyres. Quite honestly, as transport for that use it was ideal. It had to live out and received several dinks and scrapes during her use then was traded on a new GMC truck (for farm visits as a new vet) after she graduated, for $7500. She never even complained it was uncool, so that was a bonus!
I never saw the point in them, always thought they were a bit weird. Until I needed to get the Mrs a car and she didn't want a big car, with the baby she wanted something like a Citreon C1, I managed to get her up to a Nissan Juke then actually drove one, I was actually surprised how big it was inside and how well it actually drove. Actually had it now 2 years and it's never missed a beat and still ticks the boxes. Styling has grown on me..
Harry Fairbairn is part of Arnold Clark, it was probably sold with the service plan which meant you could go to your local branch and get a service. When I say a service they would look at it see if you needed any chargeable work and then maybe change the oil if they felt like it.
Had a Juke hire car (6 months old) for 3 weeks. Like you Matt I hated it. I nicknamed it “ The Joke.” At the time I had a Old Nissan Patrol as was working in the Middle East. Loved it and the only thing missing was the 120mm gun. Did about the same mpg as a tank as well .
The petrol engines are bulletproof its the 1.6dci that has turbo issues purely in my opinion to lack of oil changes as I've had 4 diesel cars and never had turbo or mechanical problems.😊
We had one and never had a days problem. Bought one year old fsh from Nissan dealer and kept two years. We now have the new latest model Juke and it’s really great.
Well done Matt, you deserved your success with this one after the Ssangyong Tivoli! Have to agree the Nissan Juke is a dreadful looking vehicle, but, there's no accounting for taste apparently. Great channel and content, one of my automatic "go to's"
Love my juke been very reliable and it’s nice to drive and well equipped..I’ve had loads of different cars and this is one of the best I’ve had .. don’t understand the hate 🤷 can’t blame Nissan for making something different looking after years of been criticised for making bland looking cars.. and let’s be honest it’s looks paid off…sold like hotcakes and still does 13 year later….and maintain it to the highest standards …and it’s always clean so not all Juke owners are the same…
Whether you like the looks of this Juke or not. Those HR16DE petrol engines are very solid and reliable engines and capable of big miles. They're Nissan designed and produced engines (rather than Renault) and have been used in a lot of Nissan products around the globe. Some Renaults too and even Dacia.
I’m with you when it comes to the wind. It’s the one weather feature/condition that can unsettle me and even keep me awake. Not sure why It should be connected to Nissan Dukes , when you’d think it would be Sciroccos.
Currently in York on my weekend away with my missus im from doncaster we got married Saturday last week im sat watching your video love em keep on giving us more all the best 👍
Those 1.6 engines are bullet proof. The 1.2 turbo is rubbish in comparison for reliability. The 1.5 dci is good but needs more maintenance and has the usual diesel dpf issues if not driven correctly.
I owned 2 jukes a 2012 and a 2014. But we’re faultless apart from usual wear and tear. The one too go for is the 1.6 DIG-T 190 in tekna trim. They are quite spritley
I was walking on a sidewalk one day and had to tie my show. Looked up and saw a Juke just staring at me. I dont know why it just clicked and i thought it looked kinda nice.
The Juke looks like a cartoon car but I suppose it makes sense: a set of wheels that won’t break the bank! Great video as usual . PS If you hate the wind don’t eat so many beans.
I can’t believe I considered one. It had too many red flags on a random car app. Did see a brand new one yesterday with real sharp edges, looked okay tbh.
Never been a fan but seen a few reviews saying it really does depend on the cars colour, and they’re right. I’m picking up a 2012 1.6 Acenta Premium tomorrow in grey with red trim and smart silver red trim alloys, and it really does show the car off much better.
I unbelievably enthusiastic about cars. Just picked one of these up for my other half and any enthusiasts who say these are bad have clearly never driven one 🤣
Depends what you mean by good I suppose. Pretty much all modern cars are "good" if you judge them by the metric of if it will get you from A to B. It's just there's many other cars that are more fun to drive, more practical, faster, better looking... etc etc...
I sold a few of those hateful cars back in the day! They always seemed the fly out for some reason, but I hated that Nissan modeled the interior of the Jokey Juke on motorbike parts! Also, very sad for me to know that this Jokey Juke is an Accenta Premium spec which came standard with the sat nav, front fogs, and parking camera. I believe heated mirrors and elec sunroof were the options that could be added.....................Jesus I hate myself for retaining this type of useless knowledge!! 😩😩
Was wondering which spec level it was - I quite like the Nissan n-vision and Tekna trims but they always seem to ruin it by cheaping out somewhere like the brittle scratchy plastic used for parts of the centre console, etc. which just rattle around and look cheap.
I quite like the strange looking exterior of the Juke, what I don't like is how cramped and dark they are inside, I think rear side windows just don't let in enough light, having said that I think you have a really good buy here, and it looks 10 times better now it's cleaned.
Got quite a soft spot for the Juke, mainly because I passed my driving test in one, first try at the ripe old age of 39, wouldn’t buy one though😂 Great vid again Matt.
@@Seatter_S oh no!! Some random nobody on TH-cam doesn’t like my profile picture, what on earth shall I do? …… Anyway, thanks for taking the time out of your obviously fulfilling life to comment, stay salty 😝
Hi Mat, I really loved when you had that transition and black and white saying how many days had passed since you have had the car and fixed, that was a highlight for me hahA
Lol it really did surprise at first when you said the Nissan Joke was your favourite car! 😂😂😂 My step daughter had a 1.2turbo which was quite nice but I can’t stand the look of them. Nice vid.
I love the nissan juke it's a good car in my opinion my mates mom's got a nissan juke and it drives brilliant it's got a built in satnav and everything in the car and the car got resprayed and never had a problem and it's a 61 reg I think it's a top of the range spec aswell and great video Matt
Just wanted to say I have almost exactly the same model of car! The only difference is that mine has slightly more exciting alloy wheels and is left-hand drive. We only bought it because it was the only one my fiance and I could agree on so basically the one we hated least 😀 But overall, it's turned out to be quite decent. Not exciting, not fast, and nowhere near enough boot space but it gets the job done Really enjoyed the video
I’ve always liked the juke , the new model is well smart The second I seen the first juke , even before it officially went on sale , I said , that will sell lots , it’s different and it’s funky , and I was correct Just like when I first seen the Honda e, I said that won’t sell , it’s horrendous , and sure enough I seen lots of electric leafs , corsas , minis etc but never seen 1 Honda e And in less than 2 years of start of production Honda scrapped it !!!!
Hateful car the Juke but it will be more reliable than the Range.. I know I have had a few all non financed and all maintained with a main dealer and on time.. Still like them though I am a glutton for punishment 😂
Really? One of the more repulsive crimes against automotive design ever perpetrated. Crap to look at, crap to drive and crap for space for what is meant to be a family car. Only two contenders for that title, the Mokka and the CHR. They are all hideous to behold and drive like a 1970s Austin Allegro and worth about the same after the credit deal has expired.
@@mrdunns3338 well it is a small SUV, so if you need something big a small SUV is probably not wurth your time. Design wise I would definitly say it stands out, and I admire their choice to make a bald move like that. We have enough boring standard looking SUVs out there so for me enough is enough. The drivning experience is not something I can leave any comment on, never tested it.
I've always wondered, how do you insure the cars when doing the small trips before selling? And when you buy the car to resell, do you count as an owner? Always been keen to learn more about car business! Always love watching your videos and I appreciate how honest and open you are with each vehicle buying and selling process. Many thanks!
Dealers and the car registered and bought under a business doesn’t count as owners I believe. As a dealer, he would have trader insurance so he can drive almost any cars he wishes with the owner’s permission and if he owns it. Some normal car insurances for individuals also has the “Drive other car” clause that allows you to drive any other car (excluding rental, lease and some other cars) with 3rd party cover only Hope that helped
@@dwoolwichpoly9086 i've wondered about that drive any other car/third party only. Does that allow me to only insure one of my cars and drive the others under that clause? I think i already know the answer to this! lol.
@@Codzilla71 so the way I understand it is that if your other car is already insured but the insurance doesn’t include you, then you can drive it with your insurance with 3rd party cover The pre-requisite here is that it will require the other car to have a valid insurance first, and to get the registered keeper’s permission to drive it
Resist the temptation with every fibre, look for anything from VW, SEAT or Skoda for the same budget and you'll get a much better drive. If you drive a Nissan Puke, every driver overtaking will smirk. I had one for a few weeks as a courtesy car and it was the worst driving experience of my 50+ years behind the wheel.
Well done you 👏. Some 💷 for next seasons footie ticket 🤷♂️😉. That colour i believe they call bronze, my neighbours had a Qashqai in that colour, but 17 plate. When i first saw it, it reminded me of my mum and dads friend who had a gleaming brown Vauxhall Viva as she barely used it!! Have a great BH weekend...👍

Well done Matt, you deserved your success with this one after the Ssangyong Tivoli! Have to agree the Nissan Juke is a dreadful looking vehicle, but, there's no accounting for taste apparently. Great channel and content, one of my automatic "go to's"
If the Jukes are so ugly why are there so many on the road?
I love mine and it’s never gave me bother.
@@rickydfc1977 Because they're all driven by people with zero taste or interest in driving. Shockingly packaged for something supposedly a family car.
@@rickydfc1977 cheap? The micro SUV market is full of ugly. Ecosport.
@@mrdunns3338 What do you mean zero taste??
@@MemskiBobSki Not al SUV’s are ugly unless is a Fiat Multipla
2:01 I like the dark red ‘Juke’ in the background more. 😉
Love my juke been very reliable and it’s nice to drive and well equipped..I’ve had loads of different cars and this is one of the best I’ve had .. don’t understand the hate 🤷 can’t blame Nissan for making something different looking after years of been criticised for making bland looking cars.. and let’s be honest it’s looks paid off…sold like hotcakes and still does 13 year later….and maintain it to the highest standards …and it’s always clean so not all Juke owners are the same…
Looks like a frog buddy
I’ve had mine for 6 years and I also have no complaints I can’t understand the hate either
£1700 profit..👌 great find for something that looks like my scrot.. well done.
What a good result after that Ssangyong.😂
I have a 2015 Nissan juke nismo rs awd. It's a fun car. I love it.
Whether you like the looks of this Juke or not. Those HR16DE petrol engines are very solid and reliable engines and capable of big miles. They're Nissan designed and produced engines (rather than Renault) and have been used in a lot of Nissan products around the globe. Some Renaults too and even Dacia.
The Jatco cvt is very poor.Nissan's are no longer the reliable car they used to be.
I’m with you when it comes to the wind. It’s the one weather feature/condition that can unsettle me and even keep me awake. Not sure why It should be connected to Nissan Dukes , when you’d think it would be Sciroccos.
You love the JUKE or you hate the JUKE.... I just love my black Juke Nismo RS and fast enough 🔝👌
At last you bought a car without major issues, well deserved!
The old Datsun Joke 😂😂 Best part about driving one is not having to look at the exterior.
Love your work 👍
240Z hold my beer...
Currently in York on my weekend away with my missus im from doncaster we got married Saturday last week im sat watching your video love em keep on giving us more all the best 👍
Thanks! Not sure she’ll be happy. Have a good weekend
Thanks mate 👍 we both watched it together
Those 1.6 engines are bullet proof. The 1.2 turbo is rubbish in comparison for reliability. The 1.5 dci is good but needs more maintenance and has the usual diesel dpf issues if not driven correctly.
Another couple of tyre brands to add to the Ditchfinder Special category. Matt, you are spoiling us!
Result! It looks to be quite spacious inside for a small vehicle. I think the new owner will be happy with their purchase.
_her_ purchase I'd guess
@@melluzi here comes the woke police 🤣
Spacious? 😂
@@iandonkin6762 best one yet 😂
@@iandonkin6762 Everything but.
I owned 2 jukes a 2012 and a 2014. But we’re faultless apart from usual wear and tear. The one too go for is the 1.6 DIG-T 190 in tekna trim. They are quite spritley
Always get a little bit of sick come up when I see a Juke 🤮 offensive vehicle, but you’re right the horrid things are everywhere 😂
I was walking on a sidewalk one day and had to tie my show. Looked up and saw a Juke just staring at me. I dont know why it just clicked and i thought it looked kinda nice.
The Juke looks like a cartoon car but I suppose it makes sense: a set of wheels that won’t break the bank! Great video as usual . PS If you hate the wind don’t eat so many beans.
I can’t believe I considered one. It had too many red flags on a random car app. Did see a brand new one yesterday with real sharp edges, looked okay tbh.
I saw the title of the video and immediately thought "No you did not!" 🤦🏾♂️
Never been a fan but seen a few reviews saying it really does depend on the cars colour, and they’re right. I’m picking up a 2012 1.6 Acenta Premium tomorrow in grey with red trim and smart silver red trim alloys, and it really does show the car off much better.
I unbelievably enthusiastic about cars. Just picked one of these up for my other half and any enthusiasts who say these are bad have clearly never driven one 🤣
Depends what you mean by good I suppose. Pretty much all modern cars are "good" if you judge them by the metric of if it will get you from A to B. It's just there's many other cars that are more fun to drive, more practical, faster, better looking... etc etc...
@@SBBUKwhat other 1.6 turbo is more fun, the other brands are bland. At least the Juke looks different.
The Juke suits you; it’s cheaper to run than the Rangie. And the Rangie would look good on the forecourt. 🤔
I sold a few of those hateful cars back in the day! They always seemed the fly out for some reason, but I hated that Nissan modeled the interior of the Jokey Juke on motorbike parts! Also, very sad for me to know that this Jokey Juke is an Accenta Premium spec which came standard with the sat nav, front fogs, and parking camera. I believe heated mirrors and elec sunroof were the options that could be added.....................Jesus I hate myself for retaining this type of useless knowledge!! 😩😩
Was wondering which spec level it was - I quite like the Nissan n-vision and Tekna trims but they always seem to ruin it by cheaping out somewhere like the brittle scratchy plastic used for parts of the centre console, etc. which just rattle around and look cheap.
I quite like the strange looking exterior of the Juke, what I don't like is how cramped and dark they are inside, I think rear side windows just don't let in enough light, having said that I think you have a really good buy here, and it looks 10 times better now it's cleaned.
Got quite a soft spot for the Juke, mainly because I passed my driving test in one, first try at the ripe old age of 39, wouldn’t buy one though😂
Great vid again Matt.
not a flying F that you are above 39 with that profile pic
@@Seatter_S oh no!! Some random nobody on TH-cam doesn’t like my profile picture, what on earth shall I do? …… Anyway, thanks for taking the time out of your obviously fulfilling life to comment, stay salty 😝
Really not a fan of these cars but a huge fan of your reviews 😏
@@artfulc0dgergreat comment
Hi Mat, I really loved when you had that transition and black and white saying how many days had passed since you have had the car and fixed, that was a highlight for me hahA
My biggest gripe with them is they are ridiculously small inside
I recently bought a 2019 Juke. I love my car 😬
Nissan Puke 🤢 But yes, put that to one side if there's a profit 👍 Your "Cheap" videos are gold dust, thank you
Well done, nice turnaround vs Ssanyong. Good engine. Neighbour had it for 2 years prefered the Note.
I had 1.6 note on hire several times in Spain with sliding rear seat. Really liked them. Very practical
Hilarious, Nissan Puke has a G meter, about as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike. Glad you had a result on this one Matt 👍
Lol it really did surprise at first when you said the Nissan Joke was your favourite car! 😂😂😂 My step daughter had a 1.2turbo which was quite nice but I can’t stand the look of them. Nice vid.
I love the nissan juke it's a good car in my opinion my mates mom's got a nissan juke and it drives brilliant it's got a built in satnav and everything in the car and the car got resprayed and never had a problem and it's a 61 reg I think it's a top of the range spec aswell and great video Matt
Solid Nissan! Its design makes it hard to nail, age-wise. Which is a good thing when selling these.
Just wanted to say I have almost exactly the same model of car! The only difference is that mine has slightly more exciting alloy wheels and is left-hand drive.
We only bought it because it was the only one my fiance and I could agree on so basically the one we hated least 😀
But overall, it's turned out to be quite decent. Not exciting, not fast, and nowhere near enough boot space but it gets the job done
Really enjoyed the video
I’ve always liked the juke , the new model is well smart
The second I seen the first juke , even before it officially went on sale , I said , that will sell lots , it’s different and it’s funky , and I was correct
Just like when I first seen the Honda e, I said that won’t sell , it’s horrendous , and sure enough I seen lots of electric leafs , corsas , minis etc but never seen 1 Honda e
And in less than 2 years of start of production Honda scrapped it !!!!
You might sell the Range Rover and keep the Juke 😂😂😂😂 priceless .
Well one of the two is spending more time in the garage guess which one 😝
@@SaulidSnake the juke, Matt maintains his unlike the average financed Range Rover
well nissan is definitely more reliable then range rover 🙂
Hateful car the Juke but it will be more reliable than the Range.. I know I have had a few all non financed and all maintained with a main dealer and on time.. Still like them though I am a glutton for punishment 😂
I loved my Juke and can confirm I did service it and get it cleaned. 😂
I quite like it. I suspected that it would be a clapped out tramp though. I think the nissan CVT ones are sometimes problematic.
I love my Nyah she’s got nearly 150,000 miles on her and she’s still just as happy ❤
I kind of like them, never had the pleasure to drive one so I shouldn't say too much but from the looks I think they are just fine :)
Really? One of the more repulsive crimes against automotive design ever perpetrated. Crap to look at, crap to drive and crap for space for what is meant to be a family car. Only two contenders for that title, the Mokka and the CHR. They are all hideous to behold and drive like a 1970s Austin Allegro and worth about the same after the credit deal has expired.
@@mrdunns3338 well it is a small SUV, so if you need something big a small SUV is probably not wurth your time. Design wise I would definitly say it stands out, and I admire their choice to make a bald move like that. We have enough boring standard looking SUVs out there so for me enough is enough.
The drivning experience is not something I can leave any comment on, never tested it.
Well done Mat, a profit, nice to see a straight car for a change...Have a nice weekend.Andre...
I've always wondered, how do you insure the cars when doing the small trips before selling? And when you buy the car to resell, do you count as an owner?
Always been keen to learn more about car business! Always love watching your videos and I appreciate how honest and open you are with each vehicle buying and selling process. Many thanks!
Dealers and the car registered and bought under a business doesn’t count as owners I believe. As a dealer, he would have trader insurance so he can drive almost any cars he wishes with the owner’s permission and if he owns it. Some normal car insurances for individuals also has the “Drive other car” clause that allows you to drive any other car (excluding rental, lease and some other cars) with 3rd party cover only
Hope that helped
@@dwoolwichpoly9086 i've wondered about that drive any other car/third party only. Does that allow me to only insure one of my cars and drive the others under that clause? I think i already know the answer to this! lol.
@@Codzilla71 so the way I understand it is that if your other car is already insured but the insurance doesn’t include you, then you can drive it with your insurance with 3rd party cover
The pre-requisite here is that it will require the other car to have a valid insurance first, and to get the registered keeper’s permission to drive it
Its nice to see a cheap car that you will make a good profit on. Your humour and opinions aswell make it an enjoyable video.
I keep being tempted by the Nissan Juke because it does exactly what I’m looking for. But I’m not sure I can be a juke driver 😂
Resist the temptation with every fibre, look for anything from VW, SEAT or Skoda for the same budget and you'll get a much better drive. If you drive a Nissan Puke, every driver overtaking will smirk. I had one for a few weeks as a courtesy car and it was the worst driving experience of my 50+ years behind the wheel.
Of most cars you review its one of the ones you will see ever so often on the roads in my country, Kenya. I reckon its fuel economy is the culprit.
I don't think it's a bad motor just my humble opinion 😌
Well done you 👏. Some 💷 for next seasons footie ticket 🤷♂️😉. That colour i believe they call bronze, my neighbours had a Qashqai in that colour, but 17 plate. When i first saw it, it reminded me of my mum and dads friend who had a gleaming brown Vauxhall Viva as she barely used it!! Have a great BH weekend...👍
So, if you buy one, you are duty bound to destroy it for the good of humanity. You just are.
I bought a Juke from new for the wife and still have it been a bloody reliable car . You should sell that easy.
