'Normal' mode is OK whereas 'SPORT' mode is good fun.

I never found a practical use for 'ECO' mode (unless you wanted to try and commit suicide pulling out on a busy roundabout). However, today I found out what it is for - the trip back from B&Q with a load of timber hanging out the back! It's so sluggish there is no chance of shedding the load under 'acceleration'

Just found this rather good video of the Juke Dig T engine:

What are beehive springs?

After a lot of deliberation we opted to take the Juke to Cornwall for the New Year rather than the Zed. I really wanted to take the 370 but what with all the presents, space was a little too limited to be comfortable for the long drive.

On the way home today I'm very pleased we took the Juke. There was a big storm in Cornwall last night and the lanes were strewn with branches (not little twigs!), peoples' rubbish bags that had been left out the night before, and there were several deep puddles that I would really have been concerned driving the Zed through.

We got home in a filthy Juke to see a very clean 370Z sitting under the car port

I can understand the whole 'second car' thing but I still begrudge leaving the Zed behind on a long journey. It just goes against the grain. The Juke has done over 6k miles in 2 months now

Let's hope not! As it is I'm going to have to call the insurers and tell them to up our annual mileage.
