Economy
Value
Stunning number of toys for the money - rear camera, sub woofer, 3D sat Nav, elec sunroof, fantastic trip computer, 17"" alloys, Colour screen, steering wheel stereo controls, integrated phone kit, etc, etc.
Costs
Fuel economy is excellent - it's the first car I've had where I've been able to achieve the offical comsumption figures.

Driving
Very comfortable. Initially I had a problem staying awake on long journeys because it was SO relaxing to drive (compared to the constant adrenalin rush of my previous Focus)
Performance
Good for a big car. However the engine seems to run out of power quite early in the power-band. 6th gear acceleration from 40+ mph is impressive.

Living with it
Reliability
24,000 miles in 7 Months without a hitch. Not even needed to put more oil in.
Image
Looks like a dolphin, Nissan seem to have finally dumped the flat-cap image of previous models.
Comfort
Good, occasional niggle with lumber support.I'm still quite fresh after a 300 mile morning drive, which is more than I can say for other cars I've had.

Security and Service
Security
No problems so far.
Service
First service was a bit slap-dash, so I'll find a new dealer for the next service.
