Hello All I've just registered, after having a look around the site for a few days as a guest. I've been looking for a new car for the last two years, yes, TWO years. I've not been able to choose. The closer I get to a purchase another something comes along. I've just about decided on the Juke Nismo. The list has been endless, but includes... Alfa Mito Cloverleaf, Audi S3, Q3 and Q5, BMW 135i and the Renaultsport Clio 200 and Megane 265. The biggest reason for deciding not to buy any of those is the cost of options, anywhere between £2000 and £5000 to spec it to what I want. The Nismo ticks all of the boxes, the bhp might be a little low compared to what I drive now,but I know a couple of tuners that can sort that, I hope
I test drove the auto last weekend, which was a nice drive (I basically got given the car and was told "I'll see you in a bit") and am test driving the manual this Saturday and hope it's what I expect it to be response wise compared to to auto. It could then just a matter of selling my car or part excahnging if the numbers are right. The added bonus/decider (fingers crossed) is the friend who works for Nissan coming through! Ian
