What do you think of the Nissan Juke Acenta?

What is your opinion of a Nissan Juke 1.6 DIG-T Acenta 5-door Sport pack, year 2010, for £11,749? This is for my daughter who travels about 20 miles each day to work on rural roads and occasionally down the M5 to Cornwall from Somerset. She's fallen in love with the look. She can afford to spend up to about £15,000 and can pay cash.

That's the Juke to go for. It has a 185PS turbo petrol engine, so it's quick enough, and also reasonably economical. Expect around 35 - 40mpg. Acenta is the sensible spec level.
