Renault Laguna III - 2.0dCI Sport Tourer Owner's Review - Fursty Ferret
Can anyone explain this "connected to the road" thing? I'm hardly the world's most adventurous driver but the Insignia seems to end up where I want it when I spin the wheel. It's not as direct as the BMW, but then it's twice the weight. There's an element of understeer compared to the Beemer but with the sports mode activated it feels pretty sharp to me. If being connected to the road means being able to tell whether they painted the white lines in gloss or emulsion, I don't want it.
Having said that, following an accident with some silicone-based leather cleaning solution, I stop being connected with the car long before it stops being connected with the road.
