Safety kit is already a strong point in the Juke,


but the Advanced Safety Shield Pack adds a


360deg camera to help you park in tight urban


streets, plus lane-keeping assistance, blindspot


monitors and adaptive cruise control to help


make long motorway journeys less arduous. It’s


expensive at £1000, but we think it’s worth it.


Flame Red paintwork is standard on the Juke,


but there’s a plethora of other options to


choose from. The cheapest upgrade, Arctic


White, costs just £250, but we’d go for one of the


mid-range £575 options. Metallic paint adds


extra style and, potentially, value, so you’ll get


more of your money back down the line.


SUVs often have a lot asked of them, and if


you’ll be using your Juke to transport kids, pets


and muddy boots, a reversible boot liner (£82)


is a good idea. One side is covered in velour for


daily use; the other is hard-wearing rubber for


outdoor adventures. It’s also easily removed so


you can scrub it down between weekends.


Although N-Connecta versions of the Juke


come with a puncture repair kit as standard,


these only really help if the damage to your


tyre is minor. For greater peace of mind, we’d


recommend opting for a space-saver spare


wheel (£100) that will allow you to continue


your journey if you get a more serious puncture.


It may be summer right now, but when autumn


and winter roll around, you’ll be grateful for


Nissan’s Heat Pack (£295), which brings heated


seats and a heated windscreen. The latter will


clear your screen faster than conventional


blowers will, while the former will keep your


backside toasty on chilly days.
