Looks harmless enough to me. No more or less anonymous than any other Renault saloon.

If they made their interiors a bit sturdier and employeed real people rather than the village idiots they currently have wiring their cars up; they might get somewhere.

The outside looks good though.

Reminds me of the Citroen C6:-

C6


Laguna III

My thought were the C6 when I saw the front too, and looks a little like the new Mondeo from the back, IMO.

And at the end of the day, it will still probably be a bucket of shíte!

It looks fairly generic. But considering the ugly beast they churned out when they tried to be different with the new Megane, I see that as a good thing.

Although looking at the enlarged pics, it seems to have retained some of the new Megane's boxy, angular design.

Sorry about that I had an upset stomach after seeing that new bucket of sh*te from Renault. I have to say though, I drove a Citroen C6 diesel the other day and it's an amazing car to drive and I like the styling. Would I pay the money for one? Definitely not.:D

It'll be cheap enough next year!

Dead right! Even in the concept one, all the switches are probably broken!

That's unfair, this may be a very reliable well built car.... Give it a chance.

(But you are right, it probably will be ****e, but you never know!)

Come on colm! Even you must generalise on this one

I know it will be sh*te just like the rest of the range.:D

colm_mcm

that makes you look blinkered, Junkyard. I'd give it a chance

Try selling one and give warranty with it and get back to us.;)
Would you sell me one and stand over it Colm? Not manufacturers warranty but your own warranty? I wouldn't........not in a million years. P.S. Colm, yer man is calling to me tomorrow about the Merc so I'll let you know.

colm_mcm

Ah yeah, As you know I won't sell any used French cars myself. but It's a little unfair to presume that this new Laguna will be as unreliable as the old ones.
(cheers bout the merc)

Looks ok if not a bit boring. Most recent Renaults had more in the looks department than this Laguna III. Said that, Citroen is the only one with big design balls

kikel

I generally like Renault styling but not this one. It's very boring.

MercMad

I prefer the current car, but I wouldn't buy either of them !

IMO it looks more like the C5 from the front though !

I passed some new Mondeos the other day, being off loaded at a dealer in the Midlands.............looked very French to me !!

Not what I was expecting as I didn't pay much attention to previously published photos, but when I saw it innthe flesh it looked very Un-Ford like !

GB15

Looks the same as the new Mondeo which loooks the same as the 407 imo.

C_Breeze

Gorgeous looking, very clean sleek and tidy. Thumbs up on this one! and still retains aspects of the old one- very good progressive styling . it actually looks like a New Laguna rather than a totally new weird car . (if only BMW could do the same)

Im sure thats the top line 3.0 v6 , more than likely we wont see any over here with dual exhausts and nice big wheels etc.

Henry Ford III

It looks ok. I still wouldn't buy one in a fit however.

Andrewf20

Interior dash looks similar to E90 Beemers.

From Company Car Driver website:
"Quality and build issues have blighted the Laguna name but Renault claims the new version will be “among the top three in its segment” in terms of product and service quality. "

Headline on the e-mail was along the lines of "Renault promise fantastic reliability on new Laguna" - much the same as that Italian (I think) politician who promised blow jobs to all the men who voted for her. Sounds promising, but we all know it's never going to happen.

G Luxel

There is supposed to be a Laguna Coupe launched but using the mechanics of a Nissan. Why is there no Laguna Saloon? In this segment since the 21, you are offered a hatchback or an Estate?

junkyard

I'm having serious concerns for the future of Nissan if they keep hanging out with Renault, what are they thinking........that it's some kind of a good idea? I can see the rot setting in with Nissan already, build quality is sinking fast and so is the styling. Take a look at the latest Micra, what a mess, bits of plastic floating around under the seats, sloppy controls and a powersteering system with a life of its own, it's nearly as bad as a Clio already.:(

PauloMN

It's boring looking already and it hasn't even been released yet!!

C5 front end, Skoda Superb from the side, and a Megane saloon arse. Could have been much nicer looking, very disappointing. The interior looks awful.

Every time Fiat launch a new model, it promises to be a quantum leap in terms of quality. It never turns out to be top of the class though.
