1.2 Acenta Premium DIG-T 115 Stop/Start 5dr Hatchback

Great comfort poor engine

Car is extremely comfortable smooths out any bumps on the road
Wife refused to drive after one week car hesitated as if to loose power when pulling away and nearly got hit on a roundabout problem has intermittently persisted.
Returned several times and was told I was driving the car incorrectly, the car was then said to have software issues twice. Gave up returning it to Nissan until I was using over 1litre per 3000 miles which was told was acceptable
Took it back after several months later as oil usage got worse
Low and behold it needs a new engine after 2 1/2 years old. The internet has quite a few of these 1.2dig t engines 2015 which have had to be replaced. Hopefully this fixes the problem of power loss on pulling away at junctions. Feel I have not had the enjoyment I paid for as the pulling away fault leaves you feeling unsafe at times
The fuel economy is stated as 50mpg mines returned 36mpg at new which has dropped to 32mpg
I am the original Miss Daisy drive 90% of journeys at 55mph on a straight 60mph road 20 miles and back daily with almost no about town driving
