Summary
What does this car say about you?
I like to think it has some french style to it! Most people think it is just another family car I suppose.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Not sure!
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes, I have always liked lagunas. They seem to have a bad reputation, so maybe I am just lucky with them!
What are you likely to buy next?
New laguna or Nissan Quasqua+2

Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Independent
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£6,000
When did you buy the car?
January 2008
Did you get a good deal and why?
Price very good, got £1000 for a dog of a Vectra 2.2 SRi that cost me a fortune! So Vectra plus £5000 for a 13000 mile ex hire-car seemed a bargain. Had been worth £14000 new 13 months previously.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Price, condition, previous experience
What was the dealer like?
Motorpoint seemed OK, no problems

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very smooth and comfortable. Not extremely quick, esp compared to vectra 2.2 I had before, but acceptable. Miss traction control though!
What's it like to park?
Very big car to park, as long and 2m wide. need to pick your supermarket spaces well!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing except for poor speakers, which I can live with. Had a original laguna previously which was great, had this over a year and has been faultless.
What's most practical about your car?
Space inside is good, handy centre console storage. MPG about 30 around town, really good on motorway though.
