What does it cost?
For The Nissan Note 1.5 dCi 90 Visia is the cheapest diesel Note and buyers who are watching the pennies will be delighted that the engine delivers over 60mpg yet still performs well.
Against This model costs much more than the equivalent petrol car, and there are a couple of notable holes in the Visia's standard kit: no air-con or curtain airbags.
What Car? says
What with its relatively high price and slightly limited specification, the Nissan Note 1.5 dCi 90 Visia isn't our favourite Note. If you have this to spend, go for the 1.4 petrol-engined car in Acenta, the next trim up.
