With sliding rear seats, an upright driving position and spacious interior, the Nissan Note is a practical family car wrapped up in a supermini-sized package. Three engines are offered - although the smallest 1.4-litre petrol powered car feels overwhelmed if you load it with passengers and luggage. Best choices are either the 1.6-litre petrol or the 1.5 dCi diesel, as both give the Note big-car performance to match its big-car cabin.
