    Hi! Looking at a few 2008 Renault Laguna 1.5 diesels, as cheap road tax and fuel appeals. Just wondering about the mileage. Is, for example, 67,000 miles excessively high for a two-year-old diesel, and if so, am I buying a banger?

    The mileage is very high for a 08 car so it would want to be priced very right but ......

    New model Lagunas come with a 3 year / 150,000km warranty so its still got a year cover left on it. Added to that, they really are a very good, reliable car. Lots of folk here will tell you otherwise because of the bad name the previous generation Laguna had , dont listen to it , they're a fantastic car.

    Have you any link to the car OP ?

    Seems a bit expensive to me considering the higher mileage, for a little bit more you could pick up this one instead:

    I've no problem with high mileage cars once they have a full service history but they do have to be priced right to reflect that average Joen and the trade will be put off by them when you go to sell it on.

    Thanks for that. It looks a better deal, alright, and mileage is very low.

    What is that crap stuck all over the dashboard?

    With a very low mileage car I would be as interested to see the service history as a high mileage car. Take nothing for granted.
