Can't believe no one wants this Laguna. Still. I know it's been Christmas and all, but 1495 with low miles, 3 litres and Renault electrics? Come on, get amongst it!

So. Much. Grey.http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2018...
John Major's Spitting Image puppet is the only likely buyer

Would make a reasonable school mobile, but a full time barge? I've always thought they were a handsome thing though.http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2018...
£2.5k Vel satis?

Or same engine in a very pretty shell. I didn't know they did a V6 Laguna Coupe.

Vel Satis should be similarly priced to the 'Guna, most make it to Gumtree or Car&Classic for that or less.

We had the same spec, exactly the same as that, different engine. I wouldn't recommend one at all. A lovely thing to drive, but not reliable. We bought, needing cheap wheels at the time, as a 1 owner FSH, 42k, £1700. A few years on, when it had got to about 80k, we bought a new car, and it was left idle for a month or so. When we charged the battery back up the thing wouldn't start, and the dash was full of warning lights. £500 of electrical diagnosis later and no-one (including Renault) could figure out what it was. It was sold spares or repair for £125, to someone who broke it.
Did you remove the battery to charge it?A bit more update on the 190 back end overhaul...
Despite not knowing me from Adam, Zonergem has been kind enough to share his MB spring compressor tool. This kind of behaviour sets us apart from the other animals.
Great tool it is, and thanks again. One issue I did have is that even taking in as much spring as you can, it doesn't compress enough to pull the spring out without dropping the inner end of the lower control arm
Springs all out without major injury. As one might expect, one of the springs had broken at the bottom so a pair of those to the shopping list. Does anyone know, or can guide the way, to a breakdown of the green/white paint coding on the spring and what it means?
Spring cups looking quite surface-rusty as described in the MOT advisories. I'll be treating all this with a wire brush (manual and/or machine operated), a rust stabiliser, primer then chassis black paint. Any recommendations on the rust stabiliser?
As ever, thanks in advance for any advice, criticism, humour etc.

Pity the rear seat passengers in that Lexus...
Compare it to any Mercedes SL. None of these are genuine 4-seaters in any kind of real-world way. Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
