    British-built Nissans Scoops Awards Double

    Nissan has recently added 2 more impressive awards to their list of achievements, thanks to the Qashqai who won the ‘Best SUV and 4x4’ and the note that picked up the award for ‘Best car for under £150 a month’ at 2015 Carbuyer awards.

 

Nissan is notorious for designing and creating award winning cars, and at the recent 2015 Carbuyer Awards they added two more impressive titles to their list of achievements. The honour went to the multi-award winning Qashqai which was named ‘Best SUV and 4x4’, and the Note which took home the award in the ‘Best car for under £150 a month’ category.

All models were selected by the panel of motoring experts at Carbuyer, who assessed various aspects of what each model has to offer before determining the winners. The areas judged included running costs, reliability, practicality and how appealing the car is to new car buyers.

Stuart Milne, Editor of Carbuyer said, "The Nissan Qashqai is a comfortable SUV but it's no more expensive to run or harder to drive than a hatchback. It's no surprise that the Qashqai is one of Britain's most popular cars."

Both the Qashqai’s reviews and sales figures reflect its popularity, with sales reaching a record breaking two million last year. The record number was achieved in just eight years, beating other popular models such as the Ford Fiesta and the BMW Mini. The model has won a number of other prestigious awards, including the NCAP’s Safest Small Family Car of 2014 and Best Crossover awarded by Auto Express. The model has also been named as What Car’s Best Small SUV for two years running.

The Note offers practicality, excellent value for money and is an economically friendly car. The model provides a copious amount of space and in car features for its price range, which is a lot more then what other cars have to offer in the competitive compact car market.

Carbuyer Stuart Milne commented on the Note saying, "There are cheaper cars out there but none offers as much space, comfort and equipment as the Nissan Note. And all for less than £150 a month."

    We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
