I bought recently a 1.2 Acenta Premium version and it drives lovely, yes it is a little light on steering and bouncy over bumps but not enough to annoy and take away from the styling and features provided by Nissan even on entry level models. This small car holds on the roads well and has great storage and boot space. Engine noise isn't bad so don't believe some online reviews on that. All around a cool little car that could pull my large frame up hills ok! Better still only £20 road tax for the year! get in!

Nissan Note (2013-2017) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| More spacious and practical than a conventional supermini | Some safety kit was reserved for upper trim levels |
| Economical to run | Not as reliable as you'd expect |
| Comfortable ride and handling | A Ford B-Max is more fun to drive |
Quick Summary
The Nissan Note (2013-2017) is a compact MPV that blurs the line between a supermini and a people carrier. Built in Sunderland, this second-generation model offers a spacious interior with clever features like a sliding rear bench that adjusts legroom and boot space by 150mm. The rear doors open to almost 90 degrees, making it easy for passengers to enter and exit. Whilst the driving position is rather high-set and lacks reach adjustment on the steering wheel, visibility is excellent thanks to large glassed areas and an airy cabin. The Note handles like a supermini with a compliant ride and reliable stability, though it doesn't match the Ford Fiesta for driving dynamics.
The engine range is refreshingly simple: a 1.2-litre petrol available in naturally aspirated (78bhp) or supercharged DIG-S (97bhp) forms, plus a 1.5 dCi diesel (89bhp). All variants offer excellent fuel economy and low CO2 emissions, with tax ranging from zero-rated to just £30. Insurance groups are very low (6-10), and servicing costs are kept in check through Nissan's fixed-price service scheme. With up to eight trim levels available, the Note offers good value for money, especially for buyers seeking practicality and economical running costs over driving excitement.
Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking a spacious, practical car with low running costs, families needing flexible interior space, and those prioritising comfort over driving dynamics.
Not ideal for: Drivers wanting a fun-to-drive compact car, those requiring comprehensive safety equipment as standard, or buyers seeking a vehicle with proven long-term reliability.

The Verdict
You should buy the Note if: You're seeking a spacious, practical car with low running costs, need flexible interior space for families, or prioritise comfort and economy over driving excitement.
Consider alternatives if: You want a fun-to-drive compact car, require comprehensive safety equipment as standard, or seek a vehicle with proven long-term reliability.
Competitive Position: The Nissan Note (2013-2017) occupies a unique position in the used market as an affordable, spacious alternative to conventional superminis. Whilst it doesn't match the Ford B-Max for driving dynamics or the Honda Jazz for reliability, the Note offers excellent value for budget-conscious buyers. Its simple, economical engine range, low running costs, and flexible interior make it a sensible choice for families and commuters. However, potential buyers should be aware of reliability concerns and ensure comprehensive safety equipment is present on higher trim levels. For those prioritising practicality and affordability, the Note remains a compelling proposition.
