The RENAULT LAGUNA (1995-01) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.8 SPORT is a five-door petrol family car from Renault’s first Laguna range. In the UK it offers more space than a compact hatchback, with easy rear access and a useful boot. It suits drivers seeking everyday comfort without a large estate. mycarcheck.com has 22 look-ups across 19 distinct VINs, a modest sample. Checked cars averaged 112,000 miles and around 3.5 previous keepers, pointing to well-used older examples. The recorded average private-sale valuation is £100, a notable data point rather than a reliable guide price; condition and local demand can change a car’s worth. Against the Ford Mondeo, Vauxhall Vectra and Peugeot 406, the Laguna is a comfort-minded alternative, with hatchback convenience. Its 1.8-litre petrol engine fits commuting, family errands and weekend trips. The Sport version adds a trim choice, while buyers should prioritise service history and condition on a car of this age.
