Nissan Note (2006 - 2013) 1.4 Acenta 5d (2008/58) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

If your under 30 years old and you own one of these, then it would say that your perhaps a sensible chap who enjoys playing monopoly on a saturday night rather than hitting a club, and that you are a virgin. If you are over 50 and you fancy taking some family to Stone Henge or Hever Castle, then this is the car for you.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

I noticed that I lost 20 friends off my facebook during the time I had it.

Would you buy this car again and why?

I'm not even going to answer this question.

What are you likely to buy next?

For this money there are plenty of choices out there, Ford Fiesta, Seat Ibiza, Volkswagen Polo... the only reason someone would buy this car is if they haven't heard of any others.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£0

When did you buy the car?

April 2009

Did you get a good deal and why?

Hire car... it was still a bad deal

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Hire vehicle for 2 weeks... that was more than enough

What was the dealer like?

Avis... well they didn't care about me much if they gave me that

What's it like to drive?

Horrendous... driving position is too high, had a high centre of gravity so your gambling your life away if you even think of taking a country road corner at more than 15mph. Admittedly in the city it was rather effortless to drive. Performance is absolutely shocking, 0 to 60 takes just shy of 5 years.

What's it like to park?

Its tiny, it has windows and mirrors. Its easy to park.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Technically no

What's most practical about your car?

Rear leg room and tables, fantastic if your 60 years old and going for a picnic

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Does handing the car back count?
