There's lots to like about the Modus, which combines smart design with excellent practicality thanks to its tall construction and spacious cabin. Think of it as being a smaller version of the Megane Scenic MPV and you've pretty much got your head around it. It certainly looks cuter than the average supermini with strong design helping it to get away with its tall stance and relatively narrow construction. The cabin is practical and well-finished with digital instruments sunk into the top of the dashboard and most of the plastics feeling respectably upmarket for a car in this segment. Composed and competent roadholding - surprisingly good on motorways, too.
