Admitting speeding on a public forum isn't a good idea, I'm sure you did that on a "private rd"

my tires have been sweet since the accident...In fact not i have a bit more confidence in the wheels/tyres I drove past the same spot today and hammered it thorugh the corner....not a problem...pitty it happened on that day!!

Funny thing was when i put the wheel back on it was smooth as...I've takent he car through the entire speed range 1-100+ and the wheel alignment is fine...

Btw Renault Laguna (apart form obviou styling issues) was a really good car..Its got the 3lt Nissan engine (low spec though) same as used in the 350z I believe. At max speed there was not one sound..quite as...I have driven BMWs/Mercs at the same speed in the same spot actually and they were not a quiet....recomended family car!!!

also it has the whole S2000 push button start setup...nice.

yeah i think if you get the fully optioned one its does. it handled nice as well...I was impressed actually and was gonna buy it..until my wife said...thats a ugly car and she would never drive it! (btw thats not a bad thing

)

The 350Z uses a 3.5L engine.....hence the name 350Z

As for the Laguna, doesn't look that bad......well from google images it doesn't.

yeah but its the same enginemaybe just bored out a bit...anyway thats what my mate said who owns a 350z...anyway doesn't really matter.

The name 'Laguna' is a bit of a put off. I'm curious to know what it looks like now that you guys are discussing it. But with a name like 'Laguna' I never would have even given it a second look.

Might as well name it the 'Persephony' for all the simpsons fans out there.
