Good Points
Reliable, fairly good on fuel consumption, comfey, brakes are good.
Bad Points
Useless heating system, no pull, boring colours, and it leaks round the windows and doors!
General Comments
Have had a '96 Laguna 1.8 for the last 2 years and it has been very reliable. Little things do irritate though - we are sick of freezing to death because the heater is so pathetic. Also there are leaks around doors and windows, so the carwash is always good for a laugh! Trying to overtake something on the motorway takes a fair while - it just DIES! Have just test-driven one of the new ones - looks sporty and very comfy but seems to have the same engine problem - just not nippy enough to get you out of a tight spot in an emergency.
