- Read the What Car? Renault Laguna review www.whatcar.com...
The Renault Laguna has a classy cabin and is well equipped, while the refinement is good and the 1.5 dCi engine brings low company car tax bills.
The diesels aren't very flexible. Rear kneeroom and boot space are below par and many rivals are better to drive.

The 150HP is a good car. Totally reliable. Looks stylish and not as ordinary as an Audi or BMW. Much cheaper used buy. The money I saved on a German equivalent afforded me 3 weeks break in Papua New Guinea.
Awesome vehicle, ignore some comments which state reliability issues, these cars are uber reliable, alway check fleet car results for reliability comfirmation and not unfounded comments
I own 150 PS estate dci, 4control. Amazing and very reliable car with low running costs.
The boot is moderate at best? The boot is massive
Compared to an Insignia or Mondeo it's a lot smaller.
Well let me see, I've been buying Renault for 50 years, have owned over 50 Renaults!! so I know a little bit about Renaults, I've also owned 250 cars of all makes, so let me tell you Renault are fantastic, reliable, lovely cars, my Laguna 111 is totally reliable and I expect to get 400,000K's from the original motor, beautiful, safe, not a clone of every other car on the bloody road! listen to idiots and go buy you Toyota, miss out on a wonderful driving and ownership experience!! 50 years of motoring joy!!
Gregory Smith I need free money...gimme some pls
I totally agree with you 💯 percent.. I have a Laguna 3 DCI.. automatic transmission.. it's been great.. comfortable and a great road car .. I love it to bits .. owned it for around 2 ,5 years .. no major issues at all .. only fixed brakes ,discs and pads .X2 wheel bearings..and regased the AC .. i know this car will last up to X5 more years.. easy peasy.. it's a 07 year and 0 rust ..
Laguna III is among top 3 most reliable cars
Be ready for some electric issues
@@Yb807-g Which? I have a 12 year old one, and everything works. I do not have a sunroof, so cannot judge about that, but I have all other options possible
@@Jorg05111980 Renaults are prown to electric issues but if u didn't have any your probably lucky
@@Yb807-g ok, but we're talking about this specific model here of course...I don't see any electrical complaints in other places either
But sadly the mk3 2007 laguna looks very odd and ugly while i have a 2007 mk2 laguna with it's great aggressive headlights
I have an old Volvo that has the Renault engine fitted. I would easily buy a Renault as the brand suits me in every way.
I am surprised to read this (seven years later) as those Volvos are famous for being one of the most unreliable Volvos ever made (Geely Volvos not included). However, speaking of old Renaults, the 2000 Safrane 2.5 with the 5-cylinder Volvo engine is one of the most reliable 20th century cars Renault made…
@@JDYTC theoratically 2000 is 21st century!!!
the first laguna was very reliable too
....got a 2.0l 140 cv flexfuel laguna 3 (flexfuel from the factory,) : the car has 10 years of service on all kind of roads (including trips to Austria, Scotland etc...), reached 190 km/H on Munich motorway free zone with boot full & 4 persons in board.... Always serviced on time, at cheap cost at Renault local dealer. Never changed anything on it except tires, brake pads & clutch last year ..... Now the car has 151 000 kms, it didn't have any breakdown & passed MOT 3 months ago with no fault...To be honest, I drive as much as possible like a WRC pilot, so this car has not been "protected"....
So, reliability? yes!!! It still handles great, the engine runs as on the first day, eveything is Ok inside, nothing is worn or broken inside after 10 years carrying kids, a dog, and all kind of stuff...Now I could afford a luxury car (porsche, Jaguar, BMW etc.) but, no, thanks... This car is built as a rock, handles fine and doesn't cost me an eye in maintenance & fuel... So, what else to say except : I keep it !!!
Handles great? What cars did you drive in corners, how does Laguna compare?
@@RallyVozac Hi, I bought an Abarth 500 180 cv since I wrote my comment. Sold the Laguna to my son in law. The car is still fine without problems on the MOT this month.
The laguna handles really great , of course it is not a Formula one as it is built for family purpose, but I can compare it in corners with my previous : Alfa 156 V6 (Legendary V6 Busso & superb handling) , Xsara VTR (underrated car, great handling !!!) & BMW 316i compact (great handling too, & no difficulty with the rear wheel drive).
Obviously you can find much better than the Laguna for sport, but for a cheap to buy & maintain roomy second hand family car, it is a great deal.
The Abarth is fine, but needs much more attention & concentration in corners, obviously it is more powerful, brutal & lighter. Hope it will help you, bye.
@@mcmkcd How does Laguna grip in the corners? 1-10? Use regular cars as scale. For example Bmw 9-10
@@RallyVozac I'd say 8-9, depending of the tyre wear. Never had bad time, even with at least 50% worn tires. Never drove the car on snowy roads.
I add the fact that my laguna was professionally maintained each year by Renault dealer's workshop, tire condition & pressure controlled by myself every 2 or 3 months maximum. I'm a bit obsessive with security & mechanic health (what is real security when you drive fast).
You can Achieve 900 miles per tank on the motorway with the 1.5 Dci engine 110hp
Hi there,
I've got one 1.5Dci from 2008. I LOVE it :) In Dec 2012 I drove from Lithuania to Portugal (2500 miles) with exactly 3 FULL tanks ONLY. Left Kaunas with full tank, refuelled in Berlin and again for the last time in Luxembourg till i got in Porto almost dry :)
Cheers!
Rafael Forno I agree with you this is the best car I ever had , I have the 2011 Renault Laguna
The First time I drove 1200 Miles to Portugal from U.K I've filled the tank at 20:00 in the night the Car Entered the tank Reserve in the next day at around 10:30 in the morning (14 Hours of driving without refueling)
Rafael Forno Mas não se arrasta um bocado?
jigrodrigues O 1.5 dci tem 180lb de forca que atinge as 1750 rpm ou seja o motor Atinje maxima forca antes de chegar as 2 mil rpm
Embora não seja um motor rapido é um motor muito consitente e devirtido de conduzir o diesel brilha na forca metes 5 pessoas pesadas e mais bagagem o disel a subir carregado
Consegue atingir uns 180 kmh enquanto um 2.0 a gasolina. carregado não passa dos 120kmh a não ser que ja venha embalado
jigrodrigues Olá! Esse motor tem 110cv e até porta-se bem nas subidas. Contudo ao nível das acelerações é bem fraquinho sim e naquelas ultrapassagens com pouco espaço torna-se um pouco arriscado. Para uma utilização sem exageros e económica é excelente e a 6ª velocidade é um mimo. Eu conduzo 95% das vezes sozinho. Portanto se tas a pensar em conduzir com 3 à 5 pessoas no carro, esquece!
I do own the car and I rate it 4.5/5
Turning circle bad
@@bernardblood9447 I've got 4control not a problem for me
To all Renault Haters
.
Renault engines are now being fitted on MERCEDES CARS
.
here's the proof
.
watch?v=WTzdd_9fzQA
So it is....
She's my lady love, she is my dove, my baby love,
She's no girl for sitting down to dream, she's the only queen Laguna knows,
I know she likes me, I know she likes me because she says so,
She is the Lily of Laguna, she is my lily and my rose.
I bough a new Laguna 2011
.
There is aspects where the car is simply the best on its class, like Equipment , Size & Fuel consumption , the dynamic version comes with everything standard even satnav and keyless Entry and Keyless start , cruise control , you name it
.
Renault 1.5 DCI 110hp with 180 nm torque + turbo is fun to drive
this engine will make a car like Smart 1.0 petrol look like a badly equipped tiny gas guzzler
.
Electronic hand brake gone wrong in 6 days , fixed under warrenty
👍👍👍
Do you still have it? Any problems with it? Is it slow with the 1.5 dci engine?
@@supermeseriasu 1.5 engine was adquate although it had only 110 hp it had 177ft of Torque it was not an Heavy car power was adquate it had a big fuel tank 60l on motorway it could achieve around 920 miles + reserve another 60 miles with fuel light on
I spent no money in repairs Electric hand brake failed however it was covered under the 4 years warranty I got the car with 11,000 miles swapped the car with 36.000 miles no engine issues
Currently have a Kadjar
@@niceboy60 Today I tried the laguna grandtour 1.5 automatic transmission, it seemed ok. I think I'll buy it. Do you feel that you have significantly upgraded with Kadjar?
@@supermeseriasu The Kadjar is more comfortable I mean the suspension is less sporty
1.5 Diesel vs 1.6 Diesel the 1.5 diesel is the more consistent engine with less Turbo lag , the 1.6 is faster and stronger however there's more lag than the 1.5 diesel
I had the 150 diesel .Great car .Only draw back was the turning circle .It's awful .3 point turns easily become 5 .And it's quick and grunty
renault are very good cars handling very well are economic fuel are very comfortable have good acceleration are very good car really i have a laguna 1999
Hi, what's up? Just amazing suit selection
Was wondering whay happened to them never seen them around in a long time and there doesnt seem to be anymore of them
After 13 years Just One problem at the abs system. Great, great, great car.
What was the problem you had with the abs system? I’m having a problem doling my own abs problem.
@@mrjames1500 Control unit ...sometimes ABS worked fine other times did not..at all...about 1200 e damage.
I’ve had the same problem. After changing the brakes it is still happening so it’s definitely the control unit. Thank you brother.
START OF THE VIDEO CLIP, ILLEGAL NUMBER PLATE, THERE SHOULD BE A SPACE BETWEEN NUMBERS AND LETTERS
Ok so cars are getting more reliable but at the end of the day you have more technology to go wrong & more expensive repair bills.
One more thing car engines rely on a rubber timing belt & if this belt snaps your engine blows up, go back to timing chains, to replace a rubber one after say 40000 50000 miles if it hasn’t already snapped is about £300 to £400 it must be like sitting on a time bomb.
Add the Eagle Premier and Disge Monaco to the list of Renault cars that proved extremely unreliable. Consumer Reports gave those cars nothing but black dots.
you know there's something wrong with a car reviewer, when she leaves the styling comments till the very end of the video, on a car which is glaringly hideous and then oddly refers to the styling as 'conservative'
Buy one and find out yourselves.
I loved the previous versions. But I couldn't like this. Even knowing the excellent technology it brings. It's definitely ugly.
fabiomarine i agree with you,everything what they are saying goods about this car is A LIE,this is the biggest mistake of the Renault,even Vel Satis and Avantime (looking way mutch better with better comfort quality EVEN DESIGN) wasnt considered mistakely as this peace of shit,and i will repeat again,the only good about this car was ENGINES (on previous models,engines was good also),and nothing more...
@ruysk no they are not! THEY STILL RANK NEAR THE BOTTOM! Renault has CONSISTENTLY been terrible. Even here in the U.S. with the Renault Allianc, Eagle Talon, NISSANS's VQ engine, timing chaine issues and oils consumption issues. Renault leaves behind trash wherever they go. It's a shame cause they look nice with nice features. But that's where the honeymoon ends.
Disge=Dodge
Uggly as shit,very uncomfortable compared to the previous Laguna II,Laguna II is more beautiful,luxurior,better quality,better aerodynamics,braking steering,better crash test,the only good in this shit of the car is 4 control,and engines (diesel engines and 3.0v6 and turbo petrol engine),everything else is bad (cheap and uggly)...
Marko Max Just swapped my BMW for a Laguna 09 gt 180 coupe and it's far better, it has been remapped to 220 BHP but the car build and drive quality is better than the BMW... I'm impressed
GT Coupe,you are saying,not ugly shit Hatchbak and Grandtour,Coupe is like Aston Martin,it has only interior same,and nothing else thanks god!
You need your eyes testing, and more reading. One of the most reliable cars according to leasing records.
Boring woman's voice reading a script written by a man. PC tick. Come back Clarkson all is forgiven.
@niceboy Mercedes cars, Nissan cars, Amc's cars (1986 Renault Alliance), Eagle Premier, Dodge Monaco, Volvo everywhere a Renault components have been, they've been nothing but troublesome trash. Wikipedia almost any Renault car, and almost always where reliability is discussed, it's always negative. FACT: RENAULTS SUCK!
What kind of warranty is that???? Who the hell drives 100,000 miles in just three years?? A warranty does NOT ensure reliability or the inconvenience of breakdowns. Stick with cars that havePROVEN OVER TIME to be trouble free. Stick with Honda and Toyota. Renault has to PROVE itself before customers take a chance on their unreliable track record.
I drive a Honda Accord Cdti. Nothing but trouble over last three years. My friend has Laguna. Not a thing has gone wrong. And Laguna drives better too!
Look beneath the skin and study the history. When u do u'll see just how UNRELIABLE Renaults have and continue to be. They've even brought Nissans reliability downhill as well. I wouldn't trust Renault or even some Nissans. The worry of breakdowns is troublesome.

Nah
Idiot...I have renault from 1998...The Best cars...cretin looser
It doesn’t help the fact that the American spec Altima (2007-17) is literally based on this Laguna.
Underrated car, gorgeous!
