1996 Renault Laguna RT review from UK and Ireland
"Un-exciting, but a comfortable roomy car"

Rear exhaust at 55000.
Key fob at 67000.
Persistent rattle emanating from the driver side under the chassis.
Petrol tank strap at 60000.
General comments?
This is a very comfortable, roomy and good looking car, but that I feel, is all that it has going for it. I found that the vehicle is thirsty and for a 2 litre engine very lacklustre in its performance, it's just not fun.
It has some really silly faults too, the central locking only operates from the key fob or the button inside the vehicle, not from the conventional lock mechanism. The interior light does not operate from the rear doors, any parent will know how infuriating it is to have to leave the front door open to see how to unfasten your kids!
