Our current car is a Rav4. I love it but it is coming up to 100,000 miles on the clock so we're thinking of changing it. We quite like the Qashqai + 2 but don't know anyone with one so would appreciate some feedback ( good and bad points ) from you Qashqai +2 owners.

Dh's friend has a Qashqai (not the +2 though). He seems very happy with it and we are also considering this for our next car.

Hi have had one for the last three years. Love it have been all round Europe in it the most comfortable car we have had. Just come back from week away with 5 adults and 1 teenager driving around France. No complaints. Have to change it had test drives in four other cars and looked and lots more but none of them could compare with it so have decided we all ready have the best so going to get another one!!

What are the 2 rear seats like? We would only use them occasionally but they look quite small.

We have had one since August 2011. Its an automatic and I love it and will never go back to manual. Only small gripe is that our previous car had storage in footwell of rear passanger seats and this car doesnt. Also we brought seat covers as we went for leather seats and its a lease car so we need to hand it back in a reasonable condition.
It great when we have visitors as it seats 7 easily. Also found it good for transporting things like trips to Ikea as the seats fold down. In in all I would buy one again if I was getting a new car.
Sat Nav can be a bit strange in the routes it sends you e.g always wants to send me through the centre of town but I just ignore it.
Its great being so high up and I really like the rear parking camere. The children like the option to have a clear or covered roof panel.
Rambling now but yes I like it.

Back seats ok for anyone up to about twelve, son 160cm manages but only for occasional trips although he did manage three hours last week. Most of the time it's just the four us. Should say test drives were in BMW and Mercedes plus others all seven seaters and nothing could compare to the kit you get in it at no extra cost. I should get a job with Nissan Grin

Grin. We are attracted to all the extras you get with it. We're thinking of the Tekna which seems to come with pretty much everything. Is your automatic a diesel Heather? My car at the moment is an automatic and I love how easy it is. The downside is the increased fuel consumption Sad.

I think all the +2 seaters are quite small in the back. I wouldn't my 14 yr old in the back unless absolutely no other option now.

We have automatic petrol but because of emissions have to change it to manual diesel. Don't like leather seats so have the ntec version.
