Renault Laguna GT | First Drives | Car Reviews | Auto Express

That is frankly shocking and to put that in competition with the Mazda 6, Mondeo et al. Renault Laguna RIP.

To be fair though, all Renaults look sh*te.

Only the Clio has ever looked half decent.

I reckon your average french car has more flair than virtually any mass produced car actually ...!

But lets face it everybody copies each other but nowadays all done on the computer with just a button click between different companys offerings

Funny how Citroen are going more Germanic but Renault are heading the opposite way.

And yes, that is hideous

Don't be daft that can't be the real car! They've probably just forgotten to take the pre-launch disguise off it!

Seriously though, that's abysmal. Apart from myopic old pensioners, I can't see anyone buying that.

Even Pugs are getting uglier too. Their grilles, are getting bigger and bigger. Look what a great job they (Pinninfarina)(sp.) did with the 205 Gti, 406 Coupe, 306 convertible and the 306 hatch wasn't a bad looker either.
