Renault Modus (2004 - 2012) 1.6 Dynamique 5d Auto (AC) (2005/05) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

practical

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Not comfortable on long journeys with a full car of 4 or 5 people. But lots of stoage space with only one passenger

Would you buy this car again and why?

NEVER - it cost me £160 for a new battery, £60 for front set wipers and you cannot change front light bulbs yourself as the bumper needs removing to access. Also regular and unfixable check emissions error message that costs £50 everytime they connect it to the computer and find another fault that doesnt fix the errormessage. Only way I found to reduce the frequency of this was to drive as a manual!!!
