I have ordered the new Nissan Qashqai in the N-Connecta version 1. 2. I am a bit worried because i have read many complaints regarding its reliability. I can't afford more than the 22. 500 Euro that i will spend for it so i can't buy the Tiguan for instance. From my perspective the Qashqai has a better design from its rivals(Kandjar, C-HR, Sportage and Tucson) and the 1. 2 version doesn't seem underpowered to me because i was driving an old ford focus of 2001 which was way underpowered. I honestly don't mind that. I chose gasoline instead of Diesel because it's less expensive and i don't exceed 7. 000-8. 000 km per year because of my job(i work as a seaman and 7-8 months i am abroad. What i want is a car with confort and safety for my family(2 kids) with enough space for our luggage and low consumption. So my question is: Does this car meet my criteria? And if so do you believe i will encounter mechanical/electrical problems in the near future? I would appreciate your answers and apologies for any grammar or spelling mistakes.

Love my Qashqai and have got over 70mpg on a couple of occasions but, what is the deal with the horn? When I'm screaming abuse at some wazzock who's just cut me up I don't want my ravings to be accompanied by a pathetic squeak. I want a horn that shouts -MOVE- not -excuse me please, thank you- in the manner of a 12 year old spotty oik meeting the school bully in a deserted forest at midnight. Apparently Nissan have received a number of complaints from owners convinced that the horn on their car was broken so, perhaps Nissan should think about replacing them before their customers are embarrassed into never buying another Qashqai.

Just got the 1. 2 T (not new 2016) everything he's mentioned is spot on. It's a bit fidgety over bumps and the sun visor is, well, silly. I also find the gear stick too high and too far over to the left. butbo am quite short. The brakes a very sensative too. Handling is good too. But it's a GORGOUSE car. The stereo is amazing and the 360 cameras a real bonus. Took me a while to get use to the electronic handbrake and keyless ignition. Real easy to get in and out off. I find the boot big enough but took the dividers out to save on fuel. I get 48mpg on moderate runs and am very pleased with that. Just wished they did an auto.

Isn't it strange, I went for a test drive in all of these, and I went for the Qashqui in the end. Liked in interior more, the ride was much better and the over-all feel of the car made more sense to me. But great review, really enjoyed it and understood why you made your decisions. Thank you.

Shit car. Shit on petrol. Drives like a tractor with its heavy steering and basic suspension. Dumb tech as u cant unlock boots and doors outside the car when its on. Dont sell it as european design. Its a barge. On the plus side the auto headlights are the best Spewing i got rid of my golf

Great Diesel engine and gearbox combination and economical. However the ride and handling are poor on bumpy roads. It wallows and crashes over bumps and rolls like bean bag in the corners. Kids will definitely be getting sick in back. However on smooth surfaces it rides great.

Aiai. you forgot to mention that 7speed automatic is supersluggish. When you wait at red light and then push 50% or 100% it takes 2-3 seconds to start acceleration. The only way to not get that is to hold brake and accelerator. Not acceptable.
