The NISSAN NOTE (2006-09) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 16V S AUTO is a compact five-door hatchback, designed to offer city-car manoeuvrability with more cabin room than a typical small car. In the UK used market, it sits between a supermini and a small family car, making it a practical alternative to a Nissan Micra or similarly sized hatchback. With five doors, a useful upright shape and an automatic gearbox, this Note suits urban errands, commuting and small-family duties, especially for drivers who value easy access and relaxed driving over sporty performance. The 1.6-litre engine gives it a little more pace than basic city cars, while its roomy, flexible interior is a notable strength against rivals such as the Honda Jazz and Toyota Yaris. mycarcheck.com records 22 checks across 15 VINs, a modest sample; average mileage is 110,000, annual use 6,000 miles, and average private-sale value £800.
