Renault Laguna Hatchback (07 - 12) review

Since its launch in 2007, the Laguna has fared well in terms of reliability, with owners generally pleased with its performance.

However, even though the cabin feels solid there have been instances of bits of trim breaking or working loose. The areas around the doors appear particularly vulnerable, so check them carefully.

Previous generation Renault Lagunas have suffered a number of reliability problems. Axle, suspension and electric faults account for around 60% of all issues and, although the current car shows no signs of being as susceptible, you should still give these areas a thorough examination.

The Laguna is a popular company and fleet car, but don't let that put you off. Most have been well maintained, but ensure that the service history is up to date.
