Strange 2 cars to compare, but Qasqai if for no other reasion than its built in the UK.

Nissan reliability over Pug anyday

Check out the interior of the Qashqai. I find it very cramped. If you don't carry passengers often then this may not be a problem.

I'm not so sure that's true anymore, following the linkup between Nissan and Renault. They seem to have taken Nissan's innovative design flair and Renault's reliability rather than the other way about.

I should add that either car will be brand spanking new, on a contract hire basis so I will have no expenses other than petrol for it

Thanks for the answers so far

An odd comparison, go for the one you like as I assume the cost of ownership etc doesn’t really bother you

As petrol is your only expense and this is a moneysaving site you want the most economical one. Are you allowed a diesel? look on http://www.whatcar.co.uk/ to get the mpg's of the exact models you are looking at.

PS you probably won't actually achive these, use the combined figure.

Go for a petrol if you choose Qasqai. It is a CVT gearbox and is really smooth and refined. The CVT fuel economy is actually superior to the equivilant manual and the difference between the economy between the petrol CVT and diesel auto is not a lot at all. The difference in your rental should cover the difference in fuel costs unless you are really high milage user.

We came to the same conclusion.
