    YES THERE’S DUST ON THE SENSOR, it looks overexposed and the sound peaks A BIT.. But this was Toby’s first time using some of this kit, and it was his first video with us. He’s a cracking 18 year old lad, the camera is in for a sensor clean and we’ll adjust the sound settings for next time. Let’s show him a little support please! 🙏🏼

      @@ShiftingMetal awesome. A lot of people were saying clean the leans… you can’t normally see dust on lens elements which is why I mentioned the sensor. As an ex photographer, it was my nemesis with SLR cameras… an air line at low pressure can help, just make sure it’s clear of any moisture.

    Good first effort but I really prefer the up & close videos you used to do, everything seems too far away, like watching a movie at the cinema from the very back row 😂 and the sound was crappy too 😢 Also the exposure was way too high and washed out, I understand it was a bright sunny day 😊 Also the spec of dirt in the middle of the lense was doing in my OCD. I really prefer the way you used to do your videos, they were better quality, but this is just my opinion sorry 😣

    Really upset with this. Brilliant video as always and what a huge step up in quality but I've loved the Nissan Cube for ages.

    Bargain. Cubes have some crazy colour schemes - wait until you see the ones with brown shag pile carpet on the dash top... Underbody rust? Flare should be disposed of, in theory. CVT gearbox might have a Sport mode? Many parts common to Nissan Micra. Also available in LWB and 4wd. Love the low mounted numberplate to hide from Gatsos. Just glue the immobiliser chip permanently in its socket?
