Brief showing of the mini countryman on top gear..gave jezza crabs..which he meant cramp lol

Will the Juke make it to top gear? & I'm sure if it does & they have the cool wall still it'll make it to sub-zero!

Hopefully it does get a brief showing...doubt it though!

Well, that's killed the opposition

My dealer has the Top Gear review shiny colour printed to hand out.

Yeti last week (Juke has pretty much everything the Yeti has at a cheaper price), Countryman this week... only a matter of time before the Juke makes it there.. hopefully! I really would like to see it on there

 

[Landydaz]

Not much of a competition! Well I dont like it too much! Only got 4 seats..didnt realise that

 

[Landydaz]

Too be fair the yeti had a good review..not so keen on the looks of the yeti either

I also think the Juke would make a good 'reasonably priced car' for the celebrity laps

now that would be good DIG-T would be even better

quick someone bang an email off to top gear and suggest they change their reasonably priced car

They can have mine - They'd be lucky to make it round the track on 3 tanks of diesel!!!!

Fee x

 

[Landydaz]

Perhaps they can tow a fuel tanker behind them on the track lol

Hmm, Juke would not be as good as the Yeti as you could not land a helicopter on the Juke's sloping roof.

you could land it on my rear spoiler though

No reason why not if you put a platform on the roof like they did with the Yeti... although maximum roof loading is 75kg so maybe not I suspect it was a heavily modified / reinforced car they did it on.

Now you have to persuade people to paint a big H on it!

I am positive they will do a small segment on the Juke. Remember, they did a bit on the Cube (although I hope they aren't quite as nasty about the Juke)! My instincts probably don't mean too much here since I'm a "Yank", but it doesn't seem like they will be able to avoid it. The Juke is far to outrageous not to comment on it. Plus it's made in England and while Top Gear is not beholden to advertising dollars, one wonders if they will be able to overlook the Juke since it's also providing jobs for the good workers of England. Personally, I'm hoping for a little segment where they come out and make a big stink about every little shortcoming, making you think they hate it, then switch gears in the middle to high praise. Alternatively, a "David and Goliath" segment Vs the Countryman where at the end they tell us we should buy the countryman because it's worse, but I guess that ship has already left the harbor.

i would of bought a Yeti rather than a Juke if the missus was'nt so stubborn

 

[JukieMcJukerson]

Yes, I saw that review, as well as the one Vs. the Countryman in the actual magazine. While I appreciate it, it's just not the same as seeing our car on the TV show.

Nothing like a Clarkson review to make a body think twice about the car the were going to buy.

Or worse, the car they just shelled out for!
