I had a 1.8RN for a while- it was a cheap and mostly reliable car- and even if the Laguna wasn't particularly impressive when first launched (I drove a few brand new ones when I was delivering hire cars as a 'job on the side', the interior was surprisingly durable- I looked to replace it with a 5 series Tourer of similar vintage that looked like it had been inhabitied by a flock of goats by comparison!
It was a decent if not particularly inspiring drive, too, and good on the motorway.
The most truly annoying thing about it though was the immobiliser. When getting in to start it you first have to remember to point the ignition key at the rear-view mirror and 'plip' it. Otherwise, when trying to start it in a hurry and forgetting, the engine would turn over once and die. Typical Renault! Its a bit like the location of the hazard light switch in the Master van- its by the rear view mirror- the last place you'd think to look. Read more

GT6 was always a factory "hardtop"
Spit was always a factory "soft top",

Thaat's not a 'red top' 2 litre, it's a boggo standard Ecotec X20XEV. I had 2 Vectra Bs with that engine, pretty reliable provided you kept the crankcase breathers clear. Read more
