Free 48 hour test drive in a Laguna - delivered to your door

[Negative Creep]

Well I've sent my details and the worst they can say is no. Be nice to get a bigger diesel so I can see just how good, or not, modern dervs are. Will probably just reaffirm my dislike of modern cars however

[Mattt]

Not an Auto no.

A friend had one booked for next weekend, but when he rang Avis it had been cancelled - so I would check if you are expecting one.

[[TW]Fox]

Hmmm this cancellation stuff doesn't sound too good! Why are they doing that?

I wonder if it'll have leather..

[matt21]

They also appear to have changed it from the weekend, to just one day.

Just on the bit where you select what day you wanted. Weekends seemed to be seperate. Maybe it was just me being stupid.

got the email, booked for next weekend

but in the email says i will be contacted 24hours before the drop of, but the dat confirmed is the 20th (sunday) even thought i hightlighted it for the weekend

this the case with everyone ?

[jsc15]

I might be the first to ask, but, on the basis that Renault are doing this to get the brand/experience "out there", what does everyone actually think of the car itself?

I presume they wouldn't be doing this if they thought the balance of opinion would be in the negative. Your thoughts please

Good car imo. Fill out the e-survey they mail you, you get the chance to test the new tourer for 24 hours when its released.

[Mattt]

I've been very impressed, the car handles quite well IMO for its size - steering is a tad over-assisted but all modern cars are. Ride is comfortable, without being too 'wallowy' - engine pulls well for motorway usage, and I got 44mpg on mixed driving conditions.

Few toys to have a play with, e.g speed limiter, cruise, electronic hand brake, keycard.

Interior feels well put together, plastics look a bit cheap - but overall a nice place to be. Seats are supportive but comfortable, have decent side bolsters to hold you in.

I just put my order in, asked for a sports tourer for the weekend the 2nd weekend in Feb and it said yes.

[lost in espace]

[Mattt]

The tourer option was only recently added.
