Downing sizing from Nissan Qashqai - what should I get?
My Nissan Qashqai diesel CVT will soon be three years old. While I love the comfortable driving position and safety kit, I no longer need such a large car. Can you tell me what I should replace it with? Do you think changing to a Juke or Note would be a good choice?

If the CVT has held up you're one of the lucky ones. Presume 1.6DCI, not 1.5DCI? Jukes and Notes have had a lot of CVT trouble. Completely different 1.2 engines: Juke four-cylinder Renault turbo; Note three-cylinder Nissan supercharged.
My current recommendation is a Peugeot 2008 that is now available with the 1.2 Puretech 110 engine and standard Grip Control that should get you through anything winter can throw at it. From £18,500.
