Position in the Top 100 cars: 75th

There's good news and bad news if you’re planning to buy a Note.

Owners told us that in terms of running costs and practicality the supermini-MPV does a great job.

But if its long-distance comfort you’re after, the Nissan is best avoided, as it’s the single most disappointing car in this area in this year’s survey.

Manufacturer Verdict (Position: 26th)

No change for Nissan, which is 26th for the second year running. Given how many SUVs it builds, a mid-table running costs result is superb. But it needs to improve in all areas to shift up the chart.

56-reg Petrol, Owner for 1 to 3 years

Has proved very reliable, but steering is oversensitive and if a grate is hit when a steering input is being applied the car will veer quite badly. The seats are not very comfortable and do not give much lateral support. Very good internal space. for the size of vehicle. Nissan need to improve emission levels.

A very practical mini MPV with reasonable performance and comfort with plenty of leg room and headroom for all passengers. Good split level boot with useful feature of sliding rear seat increasing leg room or boot space. Fairly economic to run.

A much underrated car – amazing interior space for a smaller car – very quiet, comfortable and well made. Probably a tad bland and could do with a diesel auto in the range.
