Looks in very good condition that. Never been a huge fan of Renault's interiors, but the Laguna is a good looking car from the outside :)

Seats are Megga comfy,
the dashboard takes some getting used to a bit weird but, not too bad ive seen worse,
some weird devices on them, one of which is anoying, you get a clunk clunk noise when you first set off, all the doors lock one by one,

Engine,is very quiet, iexpected it sounding like a bag of bolts,

The seats do look very nice. Do you mind me asking how much you paid for it?

I've always liked that shape Laguna, think it looks classy and distinctive without being weird or slab sided. One of Renaults better designs.
With an '04 the initial mk2 problems will have been ironed out too, and you said before it had a government history.

Nice buy for the money, nice motor, well done! 8)

it was used by the courts so the seller told me,
perhaps as a prison taxi, its just got the lease companys details on the v5, so as iguess they dont buy them there just hired like a Mobility car,

look at the 405 as an investment mate,
not many left, every year you keep it will add a few hundread quid to its value, Hint * if you get fed up with it, put it in a dry garage and close the door on it :wink: one day it will be worth a few quid, :wink:
