It's gone at last!

The laguna has let me down for the last time!! Woopee, after getting stuck in 5th gear on Tuesday and leaving me stranded, I am at last getting a proper car that does what it is supposed to and not break at the slightest opportunity. Also a damn site nicer to drive too.

Oh well, I hope no-one else has as many problems with their laguna's as me.

Good luck.

Paul.

Don't speak too soon......Friday afternoon cars come in all shapes and sizes.

Too big a selection of Lagunas at work for this to have been just a case of friday-afternoonitus I'm afraid. How many gearboxes, engines and electrical system problems do I have to get through for it to be classed as a problem with the car in general??

I'm not suggesting that the Laguna wasn't a pile of smelly stuff, but give it a few weeks before you sing the praises of the replacement.

Awfull pile of rubbish the laguna i would reject one as a hire car , my vectras not bad , but the mondeo is still the best family car to make you grin

I've used the Focus for about 4000miles over the last few months when the Laguna was off the road and never had any problems the only thing I had to do was put Diesel in it!! Has been absolutely fine and is so much nicer to drive.

It's a shame about the Laguna and the megane for that matter, as at least Renault are a bit different to Ford and Vauxhall, but the build quality and relaibility are unforgiveable in this day and age.
