10th most reliable – Nissan Note (2006 onwards petrol versions)
Reliability rating 95.8%
There are five Japanese entries in list of the top ten most reliable new cars – and bringing up the rear in tenth place is the Nissan Note. Nissan’s small car achieved a healthy 95.8% reliability rating. It may not be exciting, but it won’t break down. Good show, Nissan.

I sold my C1 last year. It was a diesel, utterly reliable, with amazing fuel economy.
Apart from routine servicing, it cost me £1.67 for a replacement cover for the windscreen wiper.
A richly deserved bronze medal position and, had Citroen introduced the new model that was promised instead of just tarting up the old model, I'd have bought the car again.
It's an ideal car for someone who just wants a car that doesn't let you down, ever!
Don't get pulled by the plate.
I have an old Lexus LS400 that has been crashed, trashed and chewed by my dogs when pups.
It starts first time every time after weeks of neglect and still feels like a new car when driving it.
I would desperately like a tidyer car now that the dogs have grown up and have stopped assaulting stuff, but I fear that the Lex will go on for ever and I will eventually have to shoot the car to replace it.
So why buy a new 96% reliable moderate car any way when you can have a used 100% reliable, easy to replace luxury car instead ?.
Even the excellent Skoda (Halleluya !) will cost £1000 to repair if involved in a small repair. I can replace my whole Lex for that.
All Lexuses (Lexii ?) should come with a smugness control button.
Peace.
