    i admit the juke hybrid hasnt missed a beat over the last 2.5 years and even with my odd mileage and short trip length its over 50mpg easily.

    the c3 aircross cabin and seats are definateley a step up and sizewise the c3 aircross seems bigger certainley more comfortable although a bit wallowy in corners the juke a bit more assured.if the rep can get the increased ap closer to zero then its a lot more attractive.

    the minis are a real step up in build quality and the seats seem to suit my issues not as soft as the citroens but more comfortable on b roads and poor minor roads round here than the formentor. the formentor electric seats def a nice to have as you can even adjust whilst driving. but the car set up is definately more boy racer so inherently firmer and the road imperfections transmit more than any of the others so far.  although i have to say quite fun.

    the qq and mg test drives will be interesting as the qq e-power is interesting and the mg kit is on paper attractive. the disadvantage is that the qq doesnt have heated anything like my present juke and the uplift to tekna trim is huge for the qq and for the juke it takes the ap over 500. unless a deal can be made although vertu the local dealer arent reknowned for deals.

    the chicken compromise would be to go for the mini countryman 1.5c classic for £327 86/week. 46mpg.

    but you lose hud,heated seats,steering wheel etc and over the 3 years is a thousand pounds more but no hassle with charging.

    well 6 months ago i would never have thought i would have this choice and these problems lol.

    thanks both for all the tips and advice.
