Driving it
What's it like to drive?
OK. The ride is a bit choppy, the handling could be sharper. The engine is more than adequate (120 bhp) and cruises at 70 at 2K revs.

Quite good, it's a long car but you get used to it. Visibility OK.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The only major thing (car has done 81K) has been the collapse of a front suspension spring. Apparently this is a common Laguna issue. The only other (minor) thing has been sticking headlight sprayers. Independent garage is way to go (half the price to fix).
What's most practical about your car?
The estate is big enough for our needs and has OK MPG (44 av).
