2004 Renault Modus review from UK and Ireland
"Needs some refinements"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wipers would not turn off in first few days.
One of the coils failed and had to be repaired by the AA.
Ignition switch very stiff - needed replacing.
General comments?
Very responsive and light steering.
Starting off is difficult as the engine races at first gear, making it very jumpy.
Airy cabin with excellent visibility and light.
Recently, power has been poor in first and second gears on hills and bends.
Air conditioning not as good as previous Scenic.
In order to fold rear seats flat, the front seats have to be moved forward making driving impossible!
High aerial at rear scrapes on garage door every time. Need shorter aerial.
