France
After seven years on sale, the Renault Laguna has been replaced by an all-new model which promises to be even better than its predecessor. The Laguna II is a stylish family car available as hatchback or estate (Sports Tourer) with class-leading levels of interior design, space and comfort. It is one of the world's first cars to come with keyless entry, with a credit-card style pad - Carte Renault - powering the door locks and ignition. The new Laguna comes with 1.6 and 1.8 four-cylinder petrol engines as well as a 3.0 V6 petrol and a 1.9 direct-injection diesel. A 2.2 direct-injection diesel and 2.0 petrol will go on sale next year.

Famous quotes containing the word france:
“I shall not bring an automobile with me. These inventions infest France almost as much as Bloomer cycling costumes, but they make a horrid racket, and are particularly objectionable. So are the Bloomers. Nothing more abominable has ever been invented. Perhaps the automobile tricycles may succeed better, but I abjure all these works of the devil.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
