Well today we (wife and i) signed for a 66 plate 1.2 auto N -connecta with comfort pack, also protection and chrome packs, in ink blue. Having spent the morning visiting several manufacturers, Mazda, Honda, Volvo, Volkswagen, Toyot,, BMW and Seat ,looking at various models In the small suv /crossover sector, popped into Nissan on the way home as a final look, impressed with the Qashqai, drove the 1.2 petrol in a manual as no auto in stock (wife has left knee issues) and thought it drove well compared to our current 1.4 t meriva , needed to be revved to get any meaningful acceleration , but around town it was pleasent and efficient in operation ,was offered a decent px value, good finance contribution, and a pleasant interaction with the salesman who was not pushy, and helpful, so deal done, and will be counting down the days till September till we take delivery.

rigga, welcome to a very informative Forum and it's all free. It looks like you had a good look around at what is presently available in the SUV stakes. If you need facts, information whatever please take a look firstly at the "Search" Area before asking, as over the last couple of years there is a vast amount of data available, but there are always new questions so do not be afraid to ask as you will be answered one way or another.
As in all Forums there are lots of Negatives but there is also the Positive side of the QQ. We have had the 1,2L Manual now for 2 years and are still impressed, had a few minors but that's life and all have been corrected under Guarantee - so you and the wife enjoy your QQ Dave ;)

Currently on holiday in Cornwall, and our meriva again performed flawlessly on the way here and mooching about, but tending to think what the QQ will be like when we venture down here again in October, hoping the delivery will be sooner rather than later now.

Welcome rigga

I have owned the 1.2 auto for a few months now and I am very pleased with it. Yes, it does need a few revs at times but I think that is common with most autos.
