The RENAULT LAGUNA (2007-09) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 DCI 130 EXPRESSION is a large, five-door family hatchback, sitting between mainstream family cars and more upmarket executive models in the UK used-car market. Its roomy cabin and practical tailgate make it a sensible alternative to a saloon for everyday family and work use. The 2.0-litre diesel is best suited to commuters and families covering regular longer journeys, with useful pulling power and the potential for good fuel economy when maintained well. Compared with Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Passat and Mazda6 rivals, the Laguna is known for comfort and generous space, while offering a less common choice on today’s used-car forecourts. mycarcheck.com records 24 look-ups across 17 VINs, so the findings are a snapshot rather than a large survey. These checks show an average private-sale valuation of £700, average most recent recorded mileage of 149,000 and annual mileage of 11,000; vehicles had about 3.4 previous keepers.
