Category: Small Family 
Price Range: £11,275 to £14,575
MPV-like space in supermini dimensions, easy to drive.
Slightly awkward-looking, weedy petrol engines, interior not as roomy or versatile as the Nissan Note's.
A useful and appealing small family car.
The Grand Modus is not particularly cheap to buy, but it promises to hold its value better than a Clio.
Renault's MPVs are popular second-hand buys and the Grand Modus may well appeal to buyers who can't quite stretch to a Scenic, or who want some of the Scenic's abilities in a smaller package.
