Renault Laguna Hatchback (2007 - 2012) 1.5 dCi eco2 Dynamique S TomTom 5d Owner Review

At my age, I've lost count of the number of models of cars I've owned, let alone driven as hired vehicles etc. However, I enjoy driving this Renault Laguna 3 hatchback (1.5dCi) more than any other I've owned. It's quiet, relaxing, performs well, is economic (around 41 mpg around the Pennines where I live, with plenty of steep hils, and 62 mpg on a long drive on a motorway. It's very practical, seats 5, holds plenty of luggage, and - unlike almost all other cars in this group/class - fits inside a standard 16-feet long British domestic garage. So you can thruthfully tell your insurer that it really is "garaged overnight". It came with Michelin summer eco-tyres - really excellent mileage but just hopeless on ice and snow. So it's had a set of Vredestein Quatrac 3's which were faultless in the winter (better than many 4-wheel drive 'tractors'), and now has Michelin Cross-Climates which work almost as well as the Vredesteins on snow. I really look forward to driving this car. Get a low mileage second-hand one, relax, don't try and race (it's a cruiser, not a highperformance car), and look forward to some low stress driving, especially with the cruise control on at night.....
