Summary
What does this car say about you?
I'm not a car fan, I take magazine reviews to literally, I didn't test drive it enough.

Not with money.

Depends if I win the lottery tonight. Otherwise, whatever's on the company list in 2.5 years time.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
OK, engine has little power and is rough on a cold morning. You can't take off in second, struggles with things like hills and you need to give it some beans to get a move on. Hard suspension because they've decided to put ridiculous wheels on it.
What's it like to park?
You can either spend quite a long time trying to get the park assist to work, or you can just learn to park properly. Oh, but you can't see out of the back or rear 3/4, so you need camera's.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes, lots. Electrical niggles, stop/start system failure, sat-nav failure, just yesterday I had a screen with the Nissan logo and nothing else. Annoyingly, you can't control and iPod from the car controls (stereo or steering wheel), only from the iPod itself, when the old Qashqai could do it, looks like we're evolving in reverse. Ability to facebook while driving is slightly disconcerting...
What's most practical about your car?
360 degree camera.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Parking sensors and cameras.
