The Laguna coupe has settled into our fleet and is making a positive impression.
The BusinessCar parking spaces are right in front of the main office door, which means it has been in prime spot for attention.
The interesting thing has been the number of people asking what it is. To the trained eye, it's obviously part of the Laguna family, but it seems many of Progressive Media Market's staff haven't made the Renault link.
Maybe that's a good thing, depending on what you think of the Renault brand, because the sporty Laguna is giving the impression of being a glamorous set of wheels from a more prestigious brand. Though the looks are still splitting opinion a little, it seems most people are coming down on the positive side.
