Renault Laguna 1.7dci Sport Tourer Privilege

Posted by: UK Car Reviews in Renault Reviews

Good points

Styling; Road holding; Visibility; Comfort; Long service intervals – 18000 miles; Luggage space; Electric folding mirrors; Reversing sensors; Climate control.

Bad points

BAD POINTS Reliability. The card rather than a key is annoying because you can’t attach it to a key ring. Wiper rain sensors are unpredictable and after stopping & restarting the engine they have to be switched off and back on to operate again.
