2002 Renault Laguna Sport Tourer review from UK and Ireland
"Good car if made by another company"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tyre pressure sensors are a nightmare, always going wrong.
Turbo unit blew at 73000 miles.
4 new tyres on the front in a year.
Clutch bearing went at 74000.
Everything on the car rattles, including the cheap plastic dashboard.
X2 front suspension boots.
General comments?
This car, if made by another company eg. Toyota, would have been great, but unfortunately it wasn't, so the great looks and interior of the car are hugely overshadowed by the poor build quality and very poor reliability.
The engine is a nice unit, but with the turbo being so unreliable, it spoils the performance of the 1.9 dCi.
Overall good to look at, but not good to own.
