The RENAULT MODUS (2004-12) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.2 16V EU4 OASIS is a small five-door hatchback with a taller, roomier feel than many traditional city cars. It sits in the practical end of the UK supermini market, offering easy manoeuvring and a useful cabin without the size or cost of a family SUV. Its 1.2-litre petrol engine suits everyday local journeys and straightforward driving. Mycarcheck.com records 59 look-ups covering 45 different VINs, giving a useful snapshot of cars checked through the service. The average recorded mileage is 79,000, with typical annual use of 7,000 miles; cars in this sample have had about four previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £300, a figure that reflects the age and budget-car positioning of examples checked, rather than a guaranteed asking price. Compared with conventional superminis, its roomy, upright cabin is a standout; it’s a sensible used choice for city drivers and small households.
