Renault Laguna MOT reliability
In 2025, 53.8% of Renault Laguna MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages pass 60.0% of the time, so the Renault Laguna does worse than average for its age, by 6.2 points.

- Figures cover Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales). Northern Ireland is not included.
- Licensed counts are vehicles with a current tax or exemption at the end of each year (or the latest quarter). SORN counts are shown separately, from 2007.
- This version groups DVLA’s detailed model names “LAGUNA INITIALE DCI 120HP”, “LAGUNA INITIALE DCI 150”, “LAGUNA INITIALE DCI”, “LAGUNA INITIALE DCI 150HP”, “LAGUNA INITIALE DCI 150 A”, “LAGUNA INITIALE 16V AUTO”, “LAGUNA INITIALE 140”, “LAGUNA INITIALE DCI AUTO”. Engine size, gearbox, number of doors and fuel are ignored, so every engine and gearbox counts together.
- Survival compares the number still registered (licensed or SORN) with the number first registered since 2001. Other versions are those of the same model with the same average year of first registration.
- First registrations count vehicles registered in Great Britain for the first time, including used imports.
