About the Nissan Note E11
The first-generation Nissan Note (E11) was a pioneer in the 'mini-MPV' segment, blending the footprint of a supermini with the interior flexibility of a larger van. Built at Nissan's Sunderland plant for the European market, it shared its platform with the Renault Modus and featured a sliding rear bench to prioritise either legroom or boot space. The 1.4-litre Acenta trim was a popular mid-range choice, offering a balance of equipment and low running costs. While not a performance car, its light controls and high seating position made it a favourite for urban families and older drivers alike.
