I have not had an oil burning problem, but it now takes a 1/2 litre between oil changes. NOTE: most of my miles are highway, not city miles so I cannot say how the car would stand up to city driving.
Other than that, a stiff wind caught the driver side door and slightly bent the hinge parts, but can live with it. Great little car and will be buying a new one with a manual (if I can get air with a manual) before they change out the platform. I do not trust renault nissan automatics and the reported fail rate on their CVT's is very concerning.
