I can also confirm that my Australian QQ has a jack supplied - albeit a pretty flimsy looking one.
However I am sure that when I take the car to get the tyres replaced sometime in the future, they are just going to stick their trolley jack under it and hoist away.
And I can't imagine that the Nissan dealer is going to hoist my car any differently than they do for all of the hundreds of Nissan models they service.

I do have my tyre change process in order now. I got a 10 ton bottle jack (smaller ones just wouldn't reach the sill or lift high enough) . I got a rubber jackpad that fits the jack head perfectly. On the top of the jackpad there are Lego-block kind of dimples in a rectangular array giving enough visual and physical guidance for perfect centering.

Its a while since I posted so thought I would give an update on these pad - ALL great and still going strong was worth its wait in gold when I broke down and the breakdown man just wanted to wack his trolley jack under the car. So keep it in the boot:
