New to owners club. I have owned a Black Juke 1.6 Acenta Sport since end of Oct and recently added chrome pack. Car is great fun to drive and I love it's "unusual" looks. Don't miss my MX5 at all.

It does look fabulous. One of its greatest strengths!

It seems to me that all car manufacturers at the moment claim mpg figures that don't prove realistic. I find that I need to push up the revs to get any sort of performance from my 1.6 and naturally mpg will suffer, even in normal mode.

Hey there fellow newbie I've had my black SL since December. I'm not sure what a Acenta Sport is. Ours all have a 1.6 liter gas turbo. The stripped down version is the S. Next level up is the SV. Top of the line is the SL. As for the bad MPG, looks the be very dependent on the weather. Up North they are having bad fuel economy. I'm down South and have been getting about 26 MPG city and close to 30 highway. Anyway, good luck with yours

26 - 30 mpg is horrific in UK terms, pirate.

It's 30 years or so since our small cars were that fuel-inefficient.

Hi, olly. I love my car too.

cheer's for the prompt reply olly, really made me laugh when i saw your post, once again keep enjoying the ride and this time in feb i hope i will be in my black acenta sport.

Ola, Car is great to drive and a real head turner out on the road. Took a while to get used to people stopping and staring in the high street or at traffic lights. Driving position, visibility, road manners all good and 4 adults travel in comfort. Performance could do with a boost in the 1.6 and I perhaps regret not buying the turbo. Gearing also could do with reviewing. All in all though I love the Juke whether driving in town or even better on country lanes.
