Summary
What does this car say about you?
I don't much care for what other people think and I'm no badge snob!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
They all are very impressed. A car with bags of style.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes. Looks, build quality(interior/exterior) is top notch. So practical, comfortable and affordable. This car is a major step forward. Drive it yourself and see what you think, don't be led by TopGear or any other habitual Renault bashers.
What are you likely to buy next?
Don't know yet but I think this will do me fine for a while.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
You can tell that Renault have asked their customers what they want. Renault have finally got this car right. It's still as comfortable as ever, but has less body role so is much better around bends. 2.0DCI 150BHP engine is supremely quiet and has excellent power. The interior build quality is fantastic.
What's it like to park?
Easy. Just like previous lagunas, the window line is low and relatively flat. I don't know why other manufacturers don't follow suite. I drove a Mazda6 for a while that was hopeless to reverse park. Good luck if you have a new mondeo!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with it. This is the best laguna so far by a mile.
What's most practical about your car?
Unlike most cars today, you can see out of all of the windows! 4x12v sockets! Parking sensors, controls for heating and ventalation easy to use. Radio control stalk is the best in the business, much better than buttons on steering wheel. Can plug my IPOD straight in.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Auto dim mirror, IPOD connection.
