article: Anyone who has spent hours sitting in a traffic jam can attest that cars are not always the most comfortable spaces. But some are considerably worse than others, an extensive survey of motorists found. The most uncomfortable is the Nissan Note Mk1 with a score of just 80 per cent, according to the poll of 61,000 drivers. Hot on its wheels is the Hyundai i20 Mk1 with 81.01 per cent and Fiat Panda Mk2 at 81.49 per cent. The original version of the Nissan Note was named the most uncomfortable car in a poll of more than 60,000 drivers . The mark one Hyundai i20 was named the second most uncomfortable car, with 81.1 per cent of the vote . 1. Nissan Note Mk1 - 80.00% . 2. Hyundai i20 Mk1 - 81.01% . 3. Fiat Panda Mk2 - 81.49% . 4. VW Passat Mk7 - 82.79% . 5. Peugeot 107 MK1 - 83.53% . 6. Toyota Yaris Mk2 - 83.93% . 7. VW Touran Mk1 - 84.00% . 8. Toyota Auris Mk1 - 84.49% . 9. Seat Ibiza Mk4 - 85.03% . 10. VW Polo Mk5 - 85.12% . Three designs by German manufacturer Volkswagen make it into the bottom ten – including the Passat Mk7 (82.79 per cent), Touran Mk1 (84 per cent), and the Polo Mk5 (85.12 per cent). Toyota had two entries, while Seat and Peugeot had one each. Unsurprisingly, it is brands associated with luxury that dominate the other end of the scale. Of the 200 car models covered by the survey, the ten most comfortable include five by Lexus – which also took the top spot. The company's RX Mk2 managed a score of 97.27 per cent, just beating its own GS Mk3 into second place (97.24 per cent). Jeep also made an appearance in the top ten, with its Grand Cherokee Mk4 taking sixth place with 96.55 per cent. And family favourite Volvo did remarkably well, coming it at third, fourth and seventh place. The MG3 came in tenth with 95.56 per cent. The second version of the Fiat Panda was also named in the top ten most uncomfortable cars . 1. Lexus RX Mk2 - 97.27% . 2. Lexus GS Mk3 - 97.24% . 3. Volvo XC70 Mk2 - 96.98% . 4. Volvo V40 Mk2 - 96.80% . 5. Lexus RX Mk3 - 96.74% . 6. Jeep Grand Cherokee Mk4 - 96.55% . 7. Volvo V70 Mk3 - 96.39% . 8. Lexus IS Mk3 - 95.89% . 9. Lexus NX - 95.81% . 10. MG3 - 95.56% . A spokesman for Auto Express magazine, which carried out the survey, said: 'Seat comfort is a big factor in motoring satisfaction, as it makes your time in the car that little bit more pleasant.' It added: 'It's a poor showing for Nissan with the Note MK1 languishing at the bottom of the seat comfort top 200, although age may now be playing a part. 'Volkswagen won't be happy to see three of its models in the bottom 10.' The most comfortable cars in Britain are made by Lexus which has FIVE models in the top ten alone - with the RX Mark 2 top followed by the GS Mark 3 in second. Volvo has three cars in the top ten and the other two are the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the MG3. Other categories in the annual survey include another comfort factor - ride quality. This takes into account how a car handles Britain's potholed roads and other conditions. Top of this list is the Land Rover Discovery and bottom in the Honda Civic, said Auto Express.
