Renault Grand Modus (08-12) - Review

Review by Matthew Proud on
Last Updated: 06 June 2008
The Grand Modus is Renault’s answer to the versatile Nissan Note. It’s slightly longer than the standard Modus and offers greater boot capacity, though both cabins are similar in size. The Grand Modus caters well for family buyers – with some clever storage solutions and child-friendly features – while older drivers may appreciate its elevated driving position, easy access and added practicality. The engine choice isn't huge but does include the economical 1.5 dCi which is also used in the Clio.

Buying used

Other Renaults have had more than their fair share of problems, so check it over before buying privately. The diesel is the best engine in the line-up, but if you don't intend to cover large mileages, one of the 1.2-litre engines should suffice.

Selling

The Grand Modus will appeal to both family and older buyers, so emphasise its practicality and low running costs when selling yours. Models with air conditioning will be easier to sell.
