I have a three month old Puma and I love it to bits. My previous car was a Peugeot 308CC. Having driven it for 14 years, driving the Puma is just heaven. I have not driven a Juke but would a go so that I can compare. Love my Puma tho!

Personally I bought a Puma, great car.

Great review I have the 125ps same model and colour and its brilliant car, glad you liked it.

Puma looks more like a hatchback than a SUV.

I really like, you gave all details/information we need. Pl. make a video on emergency break. How fast response of car with respect to road conditions/ situation. Hope you are clear.
Good luck my friend.

It makes sense to have a drain plug in the boot of a ford…several fords I’ve had from mondo focus fiesta have always accumulated water in the boot. I’ve always had to drill a hole or two in the floor of the boot to ensure the water drains out…it’s not just me either friends of mine have had the same trouble.

Juke is definately more eye catching and very plish inside. After driving one I found the turbo engine to be really nippy. The presenter seemed a little biased.

Me too. Bought the Puma. Drives very nicely and packed with options.

Test drove both cars and preferred and purchased the Juke.

I enjoyed watching the Video Comparison. Both Models offer something different for the buyer

[cosmoray]

Personally I would go for the Juke. 👍✌

Got huge savings for my juke here in Au bc the puma sold a lot more there's not much stocks less for a negotiable deal.
But if I can go back in time, I would have waited for the i30 sedan Elite instead 🤦

Great review. Just bought a Puma st-line off the back of it, in the grey matter colour with black contrast roof and dap. 👍

Do we actually buy a car based from a reviewer who just took the car for an afternoon drive? We better read reviews from owners experiences in the forum. And you will realised more problems with certain car models.

Having seen the puma I would certainly not class it as a suv, it's a small hatchback. I remember the original Ford puma and it was a gorgeous car.... Personally I don't like the external design of the puma... And that puts me off even taking it for a test drive. Currently looking for a small suv and

Wish they would bring the 2nd gen Juke to the US.

Good review, although I don't think the Puma is best on class or even an SUV, as mentioned the ford focus has better ground clearance. I also don't think the juke is best in class at the moment either. However in saying that, I do have to be fair and the Juke, it sells in its millions for some reason. My partner had a 2013 model tekna from new and loved it, and to be fair again only drove it a few times, it had lumbar support and it was a surprisingly decent drive for this sector. Also for the full 7 yrs they owned the car it never ever had a problem and passed every MOT first time! They have just traded it in for a new model Tekna+ in the black and red pack- really looks great and the spec list is really impressive, alot more expensive models in this competitive sector have no where near as much tech or spec. Here's hoping for another 7yrs if not longer of trouble free motoring.

I wish they brought the puma mhev to Australia
