Today’s hot car deal: funky and frugal Nissan Juke for £179 per month

The popularity of SUVs refuses to dwindle, but where did it all begin? Some might trace its roots as far back as the original Land Rover, but when it comes to smaller, more urban-friendly runarounds, it was the Nissan Juke that sent the segment mainstream.

While it may not excel in any one area, it’s still a credible all-rounder, and this deal from Leasing.com will make it hard to resist. A funky, fuel-efficient family SUV for less than £200 per month? Step this way…

What’s so good about this Nissan Juke deal? 

As with many lease deals, you can tweak this offer to fit your needs. But we wouldn’t bother – the low monthly payment is only applicable if you stump up nine months initial rental (£1,919) and adhere to the 5,000-mile annual mileage cap for the three-year deal, but 15k miles should be plenty for most buyers after a city-suited small crossover.

It’s not the hybrid model, but the DIG-T 114 is punchy enough and Nissan claims it’ll do almost 50mpg. Further to this, you’ll be snagging yourself a plush N-Connecta car – the middle trim of five specs on offer – throwing in desirable extras like 17-inch wheels and a built-in TomTom sat-nav.

If you plan to cover longer distances, you can up the limit to 10k miles per year for £213 per month, or to 15k per year for £237 per month. Either way, you’re looking at a seriously cheap lease deal for in-stock cars that could be sat on your driveway in a matter of weeks.

Why not treat yourself? It’s almost Christmas after all!

What’s so good about the Nissan Juke?

As mentioned, the Nissan Juke could quite rightfully stake its claim as the original urban SUV – with the possible exception of the original Toyota RAV4. But while that car has grown to more than 4.6m-long, the Juke is almost 40cm shorter at 4,210mm nose to tail. This, matched with the light steering and peppy turbo engine, makes it great for threading down tight city streets.

This latest version is miles better than its predecessor, too. The latest Juke is sharper to drive and it’s more spacious than before. The N-Connecta is our pick of the range, thanks to its blend of kit versus cost; every car gets an eight-inch infotainment screen with a reversing camera, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There’s automatic climate control, LED lights with adaptive high beam, as well as a choice of colours including some with a two-tone roof.

The N-Connecta also comes with 17-inch wheels, which look great but are considerably smaller than those on top-spec models. That makes a tangible difference to ride comfort – making this Juke more comfortable than Tekna or Tekna+ cars.

Anything else I need to know about this deal?

This is a lease deal, often referred to as Personal Contract Hire (PCH), so there’s no option to buy the car at the end of the contract. You are effectively renting the car for the two-year term, but the deal is very flexible so you can adjust the term length, mileage limit and initial payment size to suit. Once the deal is over, you just hand the keys back and start looking for your next car.
