Nissan's funky new urban car is now on sale in the UK.

It won’t win any sprint races, though, as 0-60mph takes 10 seconds. If you have a spare moment, look at the first generation Cube. The Cube has never been sold officially in the UK, but it has still managed to build up a loyal following, with a significant number of enthusiasts personally importing the characterful MPV.

"It looks like a wedding hearse," said one neighbour, based on the fact the model I'd been lent was a very bright, opalescent white with tinted glass.Other wags followed suit: "Has Postman Pat had a respray? If you're prepared to compromise a little, the Cube doesn't ask too much in return for a genuinely individual ownership experience. Designers claim they wanted it to feel as relaxing as a jacuzzi, and there are plenty of ‘fluid’ styling touches to be seen, including a ripple design for the roof that resembles the waves caused by a water droplet. It has a CVT gearbox with a fiddly column shift (Euro-spec cars will get a centrally mounted shifter), yet still provides an insight into how Nissan has rethought its cult box wonder.First, the design is now softer and more aerodynamic, while keeping the Cube's asymmetric rear end and its side-hinged tailgate.The Cube’s interior is still something else, though. The Nissan Cube is one of those idiosyncratic cars that cheerfully runs outside the mainstream.

This review is going to concentrate on the second generation cars: for me the third generation cars (from 2008 onwards) are a little too bulbous and lost a lot of the charm of the second generation Cube/Cubic.
