Would a yougov petition to make it legal to smash their headlights in with a hammer gather wide support do you think?
Where do i sign? Ugliest cars on the road, why would anybody buy that!?
My friend has one and I like her.
I'd sign it!
Had one as a hire car once. It was shite.
Had one as a hire car once and quite liked it. Less ugly from the inside.
there is a "nismo" juke near work.
as far as i can tell that means it has contrasting red wing mirror on its silver shell.
Horrible looking motors that should never have made it beyond the designer's waste paper basket.
Inexplicably popular with pensioners round my way. Trying to recapture their lost youth, I suppose. Although buying a "funky" car in uber-pensioner burgundy seems to defeat the object.
Hurl.. Where do I sign?
One of my Students Mums has one.
She calls it Daisy as in Daisy Juke......
Designed by primary school children as an art/craft project.
Guess the nismo effect is designed to draw your eyes to the wing mirrors to attempt to dispel the uglyness of the rest of the car.
(clever sales tactic)
I think they are quite quirky but wouldn't own one.
I'd happily push all of them and their "urban crossover" brethren into a volcano
I'm in, where do I sign
Car company makes car that responds to market shocker. STW froths over quirky car shocker.
Wouldn't have one myself but they don't take up much road, I'm sure they're reliable and efficient and they give me something to reinforce my convictions regarding my superior taste.
Paint jobs is ugly a well:

Now Range Rover Sports on the other hand, or whatever those silly RRs with the lower roofline are called...
Granted they are fairly ugly, but not in the same league as those stupid big minis, or BMW X6.
Compared to some of their other turds, the Juke is a handsome beast. I give you the Murano Crosscabriolet. I saw one of these last week and felt a little sick.

I like that people drive them around. Gives me a little chuckle every time I see one of the stupid looking things.
I can see why some people like them - small elevated driving position. They are damn ugly in my eyes, but each to their own. Having had a couple as hire cars, they are though very small inside - particularly the boot. Plus very slow (at least the hire spec models).
simmy - MemberShe calls it Daisy as in Daisy Juke...
Personally I'd rather have a petition against people giving their cars names. Its a bloody car FFS. Dont start me on people referring to their pets as their "baby". They'll eat you limb from limb if they're starving.
*grumps off muttering*
It's specifically the always glaring frog lamps that do my nut.
And I mean frog. Like stupid frog eyes.
Don't see what the problem is with them myself...
At least it's not a bland jelly mould shape like a lot of manufacturers seem to spew out.
They're fairly small and economical and aren't doing you any harm, are they?
Trail_rat, the Nismo one has almost 200bhp and will do 0-60 in under 7s according to Autocar, so a bit more than coloured door mirrors.
The people who buy them aren't cutting-edge types. Its people who are trying to hard, same with the car.
Its a Nissan. The only Nissans I like are the early Nissan Cube's and they look awesome IN Japan but shit in Berkshire.
"Trail_rat, the Nismo one has almost 200bhp and will do 0-60 in under 7s according to Autocar, so a bit more than coloured door mirrors."
does it have handling to match?
if not ill add big engine to the coloured wing mirrors- big engine and coloured wing mirrors a car doth not make.
Seem to be the love child between a frog and Lieutentant Grubers "little gay tank" from 'Allo 'Allo.
What about the Juke-R???
Juke with a GTR engine
[url= http://www.topgear.com/uk/photos/the-first-production-Nissan-Juke-R-is-ready-2012-10-16 ]Still wouldn't want one...[/url]
My wife wants one, as far as I'm concerned if it's cheap to run, reliable, and can overtake a lorry up a hill it'll do. It's not ideal, but if its looks piss off so many people on here it must be doing something right 🙂
Don't like them. I assume they're driven by people who want to be different, ignoring the fact that there are so many on the roads.
To be fair, they should've just called it the Nissan Milf.
Despite the fact that they're as ugly as sin from every angle, have been slated by the motoring press for being hideous etc etc, just how many of the damn things do you see? I don't understand Nissan. Most manufacturers have a super mini, a small hatchback, a family car, maybe a SUV type thing etc. Nissan have 2 (?) super minis and then 3 softroader type things before jumping to the 370Z and GTR.
Target market was apparently 30+ people who imagine that they like to go surfing at the weekend.
Actual market appears to be pensioners.

Ahh yes the same as "Old bastard red" we had a good laugh when a work mate bought one and his 80 year old mum said "Ohh Steve that's a nice colour"
I wasn't aware they did any colour other than white?
I drive one. I like it. :p
It's pretty sporty and economical.
On a purely selfish and personal note, I'm a little concerned at the precedent being set that things deemed ugly by the STW masses can be voted to be destroyed.
*goes off to search for cosmetic surgery threads*
annebr are you....a MILF? 🙂
Morecash - in just on about their idiot drivers inability to turn the stupid lamps off.
Urban Thrill Ride is the Juke marketing slogan isn't it

he family of a cyclist who died three weeks after a crash in the West End today released the last picture of him in hospital to warn motorists to take extra care on London’s roads.Retired teacher Michael Mason, 70, was an experienced cyclist who was rushed to St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington after the accident in Regent Street on February 25.
He was placed into a coma after suffering a severe brain injury, fractured skull and broken ribs. His family gathered at his hospital bedside to commemorate his 70th birthday last Monday. Mr Mason is the second cyclist to be killed in the capital this year. Fourteen cyclists died last year.
The life support machine was switched off four days later after he slipped into a “permanent vegetative state” three weeks after colliding with a black Nissan in Regent Street.
Whats that got to do with a car model?
gwaelod - that post is rather unnecessary.
Cycling in London is dangerous we know that!
Higher front ended cars tend to injure pedestrians/cyclists more in accidents - I'm guessing that's the suggestion though I know nothing about the circumstances of the accident.
Actual market appears to be pensioners.
Old people often like cars a little higher up, makes getting in and out easier.
I'm no fan of SUVs but I doubt the Juke is going to much more damage than a normal car.
And as for joining a thread to show off about how much you hate a car - do me a favour. Are you all Jeremy Clarkson or something? At least he gets paid to rant.
