Renault Laguna III - 2.0dCI Sport Tourer Owner's Review - DP
This sounds like me defending a Grand Scenic in the other place a few years ago. Very likeable car that we loved spending time in. But the fault tally just kept growing and growing until it actually dumped us at the roadside in a less than safe spot, and the bill came to four figures (or near as dammit).
They design a lovely car, do Renault. But they don't pay enough attention to durability, reliability, cost of repair, or maintenance access to anything.
Wouldn't own another Renault, ever. Some would argue it's my loss, but I am prepared to live with that.
