Well, I've only had my car for a couple of days now and so far am enjoying it.Averaged 40 mpg mainly driving on dual carriage way with a little bit of motorway thrown in for good pleasure !My only gripe so far is the gears. Changing gears feels a little clunky to me and not very smooth.Also, as mentioned on previous posts it revs high when doing 70mph. Even at 60 mph its reving about 3000 !! So it makes the engine a little noisy and feels like the engine is working way too hard. Other than that, I really like the nissan connect system. Very impressive. Had a few issues syncing my iphone initially but once set up it works effortlessly now.Seats are comfortable with a good driving position. I like being high up, gives you a good view.All round vision is pretty impressive. Those wing mirrors are enormous ! Shame they do not fold in electrically and are not heated as they do tend to fog up a bit !Went grocery shopping yesterday and did find that the boot is a little on the small side. Just about managed to get all my shopping in there. I bought the soft trunk liner which fits great, but the quality, if I am honest, is a little disappointing. Seemed quite flimsy to me but I'm sure it will do the job all the same.Over all, so far I am very pleased with the car and its performance. Talking of performance, I do notice a marked difference between normal and sport mode. They are the two driving modes I've been using so far. With sport mode there seems a lot more throttle and acceleration is far more responsive. Normal is a little sluggish when you want to pull off or attempt to overtake comfortably. Not sure of the difference between fuel consumption between the two modes yet. Ive not tried it out for long enough yet. Will report back on that later!Well, that's it for now. Back to driving the Juke !!
