Nissan Juke Shiro tops the Juke range

The new range-topping Juke - the Nissan Juke Shiro The Nissan Juke Shiro launches as a range topper for the Juke range, with white interior features and 17″ dark alloys. All the news of late on the Juke has been the very bonkers Juke-R, but now Nissan are back in the real world with a new range-topper in the guise of the Nissan Juke Shiro.
