The RENAULT MODUS (2004-12) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.5 DCI 86 INITIALE is a small five-door hatchback, sitting between a supermini and mini-MPV in the UK used-car market. Its compact size suits town driving and parking, while the raised cabin makes entry and visibility easier. With its 86-horsepower 1.5 dCi diesel, the Modus suits commuters and small households wanting an everyday car; five doors and a higher seating position may also appeal to first-time buyers. Initiale is a more upmarket trim, adding polish to this practical, city-friendly Renault compared with basic supermini rivals. mycarcheck.com records 13 look-ups across eight distinct VINs, useful context but a modest sample. Checks show an average private-sale value of £500, average recorded mileage of 108,000 miles, annual mileage of 6,000 miles and nearly four previous keepers. Against roomier small MPVs, it is easier to park; check each car’s condition and service history carefully before making your choice.
