It was only a couple of weeks ago that I realised I had consistently done Bruce Willis down - he's great in Pulp Fiction, 16 Blocks, Fifth Element, Bandits, Sixth Sense - in fact, many of the films I enjoy watching the most he is in. I even quite enjoyed him in Die Hard 4.0 in all his baldness.
The reason I mention all this is that I've recently had a similar epiphany about NIssan - Qashqai, 370Z, Cube, Murano and now the Juke. Admittedly the Micra is Nissan's Armageddon, but we can't have it all ways, them bills have to get paid somehow.
Nissan makes some good cars - it still feels weird for me to say this, but I can't wait until the day that I get to spend some time with a Juke. I think it looks absolutely marvellous, and there's no driving experience short of poking me in the eye every time I press the brake pedal that is going to dampen my quixotic fervour.
Of course, I'd still buy a Cube over anything else with my own money, but that's a whole other fetish and there's time for be to be wooed, Juke...
