I've always dreamed of doing this with a Laguna, so being able to watch someone doing it for real is epic!

Noice. I went to a few of the BTCC races during the Super Touring era and I loved the look of the cars. The Laguna looked good in BTCC guise. Shame that Lagunas have mostly disappeared from the roads now. They were a good looking car.

Fair play to ya buddy. That’s a hell of a tight build. Bravo, sir. 👏👏👏👏

One of the most beautiful cars ever built. I'm looking forward to the finished result.✌

After watching the BTCC in my late teens my second car had to be a Renault Laguna. I managed to get a 1.8RT cheap, lowered it, and stuck on some touring car style 18" alloys. It was all I could afford to do. I can't wait to see how this turns out. Good luck on the project. 😊

Ton projet est tellement cool !

Now, that's an amazing project right there

That Laguna was is great shape & very clean..!!

Hello, I have a question, did it seem to me or did you change the engine for a Clio Sport 172hp? If so, a very good idea, I congratulate you for recreating one of the most beautiful BTCC cars in history. Hugs from Buenos Aires Argentina...!!😍🤘👍👍🏁🏁🏁🏁

Cool project love to see the final result of it 😎

How great! In future I want to renovate my 21yo laguna 2 from strach

Great work. Thanks for the videos.👍🏼

Fair shout dude. My favorite car "in the world" when I was growing up 😂. Best of luck. Will be sweet 👌👏

Wow this is a exciting build. I’ve been thinking of doing a Camry or Primera replica (SATCAR) here in South Africa.

Mate… great swap. Love this

That was a clean Laguna to begin with!Had a 1.8 r reg in 2004-lovely car.

Now this is cool. I used to love touring cars back in the day. You had tiff needel, Jason plato, bishop, matt o niel etc,. The racing was always door to door excitement.

Love this era btcc cars 🔥🔥🔥

That was the most mint p reg in the UK when you got it. But now I actually want a go in it when your done. Got to keep your viewers happy.

That is one seriously clean shell 👍🏼

I had a 2.0 8v one of these I loved it wish I never got rid

This was such a beautiful car in stock condition.... Now, it's even better! Amazing build and great dedication!

nice work and funny swap haha 🇫🇷🇫🇷

Amazing job! Support from france

Such a pro job, but that f..kin steering wheel gave you a little headache....😂 Well done 👍👍

Absolutely brilliant mate, love it.

Nice Project 👍

Ahora me siento más orgulloso de poder tener un Renault laguna igual al que reformaron!!!

best laguna model too

Always wanted to do this to an 850 Volvo

Vivement la suite !!!!!!!!!

this guy took 1 1/2 year to make his car undrivable. thumbs up

Nice video man! We are going to be doing a similar project next, e36 STW :)

At 3:13 when you want to remove the wheel, don't try to pull it off, but bang it with your fists (pretty hard), that will brake that bond and it would by much easier to remove it.

That Laguna looks mint was it not from England or something, nice project gunna look sweet when it's all done

The car was in mint condition!!!

nice video..keep it up

Nice work, always good to see a different build! I noticed you removed all the seam sealer between the floor panels and sills etc. so do you plan on doing any stitch welding?

This is top tier content! Why were you trying to break the wheel off btw?😄

Awesome ! What do you use to clean the engin bay and remove the blaskon ?

i hade the airflow model in red dam it went like a rocket best looking model's the mk1's 👍👍

The project is nice and all but what stroke me the most was how mint that Laguna was considering is a 90's car and is the kind off car that people abuse the most for not being expensive nor having a "premium" status.

Where have all the Lagunas gone 😩💥💥

you have to tap the steering wheel right and left to remove it.

This is great, thanks for sharing, can't wait to see the next stage. Did you swap the engine because the 172 engine is going to be powerful enough, or because its a better start point for future tuning?

Félicitations.

Nice car

Hello, Nice work. I have one question, Witch Brand from suspensions?

3:13 not like that! 😮 By using your open hands - HIT first right side of the rim, and then left side. Do it in a fast loop in sequence. It sounds not logical (because you press/subtend steering wheel more) BUT that force will quickly release tension and wheel will pop up. BTW. The same trick is with the car wheels. Loose bolts and sit down on the ground and during sitting, using your legs/feet - hit right and then left side of the tire in a fast loop sequence - then the wheel will pop up

What product to use to remove glue from roofing felt? It looks like magic!

A mate of mine back then was race mechanic for Alain Menu, he told me at the time that the Laguna was a terrible race car and that to make it any good they had to move the engine right back and much much lower. He said that it was unrecognisable under the bonnet as a Laguna because of all the mods needed to make it handle. Of course this isn't uncommon in any race car, but his view was that they had chosen a car that was handicapped by bad design and that the work needed to make it effective was unfair to people looking at the race car as proof that buying a Laguna was a good move for the road. Nonetheless, it looked like the dogs doo dahs and your project is cool.

What product are you using in your sprayer to clean the engine bay ? Seems very usefull !!

Oh my god! It's the project that I've been dreaming about for a couple of years now :o BTCC Laguna my dream car! Can you please tell in couple of sentences what is needed for swapping Clio 172bhp into Laguna shell? Is it plug n play or there is some work needed? and also Focus ST170 as a daily :)))))) man you are literally me

Nice work so far! Any updates on the build?

Hi guys I need some advice instead of buying a Laguna 1 and a dropping a Clio 2 RS engine do you think its viable for tuning purposes if I buy the 2.0 F4R Laguna just outright? Would like to read your thoughts. Cheers

Pourquoiiiiii!! Un v6 bon sang!! Perte de temps!!

part 2 is needed

Ok, but then you continued to work on it or not? And will you always put the video on youtube?

please what is the part number of the coilover shocks? In France we do not find any for the Laguna B56

Autonomous sensory meridian response

Beautiful 👌 bonjour de la France 😊🫶

Any chance of finding an actual used BTCC engine and suspension? I’d think that might be the coup de grace for a build 🤔! Of course please excuse my ignorance if such things are un obtanum 😂

I have a 96 laguna, N7Q engine (2.0 16v Volvo). I hate it with all my heart, it's breaking all the time!.

clio sport in good condition for a laguna 5 doors and heavier. no interest😮‍💨

That’s 10 mins of my life I’m never getting back 😅😂 what a waste of a good clio

Part2?

Oh this is the reason why there's a lack of clio 172s on the road

.Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe .

Вы её на металлолом разбираете?

Love those lagunas in the btcc livery but you’ve ruined a perfectly good sport Clio

Kde je zvuk 😡

And its not even finish? What a waste of time...dislike

Renault = zero !!! 🤢🤮🤮

Бестолковая затея Просто страшно бестолковая Ставить двигатель от модели значительно меньшей массы в кузов на 200кг тяжелее Почему было не установить мотор 2,0 турбо от лагуны 2го поколения??? Или родной v6? Британские идиоты Привет вам из России
