Summary
What does this car say about you?
The car has class about it which suits me fine.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
They all say its a smart looking car, very nice.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes I would due to its build quality, ride, value and economy. This car has never let me down and the fuel economy ranges from 52 to 64mpg with the six-speed box. However, you MUST change the EGR valve (£70) at no more than 60,000 miles or you can blow the turbo, head and intercooler. The mpg will also drop to 30mpg, this is from a lot of reviews and I changed mine straight away.
What are you likely to buy next?
Mark 3 Laguna Dynamique S 150bhp, red or black if I can find one.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's very positive to drive, especially with the 17-inch Silverstone wheels with 225 tyres on it, sticks to the road like glue although there is a little body roll this is due to the very smooth road manners especially at 70mph on the motorway.
What's it like to park?
I've never had a problem parking it. You think there is no more room to reverse until you get out and realise there is 3ft left to go!
