1997 Renault Laguna RT Sport review from UK and Ireland
"I love driving it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing unusual - Radiator leaked at 85000 or so miles.
Both rear brake pistons leaked, but this was at over 100,000 miles.
The thermostat stopped working at about the same time as the radiator leaked.
Both drain plugs for the sunroof clogged up so water leaked into the cabin.
Wiring for the front fog lights gave a small bit of trouble.
General comments?
It is a quick car. I've gotten 128 mph from her! I do about 105 miles a day so this keeps it lively.
114,000 miles and its not burning/using any oil between services.
Its very comfortable and as far as I know the original shocks are still on it!
It's a well speced car, remote central locking, ABS, electric windows, sunroof & mirrors. 6 disc cd changer with finger tipped controls on the steering wheel.
I still get about 41/42 mpg from her.
