Have a look at the Laguna Forum,

Then a look at the Mondeo Forum,

And see which scares you the least.

My old vectra is just about on her last legs... Not got the £££ at the moment to splash out on a new cab, but been offered a low mileage 1.9dci Laguna cheap.... No-one around here runs one as a cab, what's everyone's opinion? It's either this at £1500 or a Mondeo with same miles for £2700..... Not too worried about age as no restrictions with my LA..... |

I run 2 Lagunas as private hire. No real problems so far although one of the does keep throwing up the check emmisions light. This, I am told is the DPF. We usually give the car a blast down the motorway in 4th gear the next time we are on one and this usually fixes the light for a few weeks. |

We got a great deal on a new Zafira so the Dacia will have to wait. The Dacia that we are looking at is the Logan. It is more or less a Megane Estate. As soon as we have saved our pennies we will be getting one. |

They fold away into the floor to make the flat boot space. Removing them altogether would look a mess. |
