Renault Laguna BTCC 1999 Touring car - start up and fly by’s

[@greggsevern3277]

The best era of touring cars by an absolute country mile.

[@marcogarbin2977]

BTCC the best championship in '90s, and one of the best forever

[@yenchey3270]

Easily one of the most beautiful cars ever produced by mankind...

[@moninum]

Looks beautiful, sounds even better. It´s just satisfying to hear these engines.

[@rrr579123]

moninum this is an awesome car for sure

[@MWRaceRally]

The engines of the Supertouring era were awesome, they all sounded so different from each other. I especially enjoy the Volvo S40’s 5 cylinder! 🥳

[@TekkenBones]

The MK1 Renault Laguna, more specifically the facelift with the 17ich alloys, was quite a pretty yet sporty looking car especially when looking at it from the front. The Green Touring car version really built on that, the way the front end angles downwards kinda accentuates it's "barely off the ground" stance. A very good looking touring car even now. And when you do see MK1 Lagunas on the road (extremely rare these days!) they stand out a mile, because they are pretty, and not swollen, like todays cars.

[@send6732]

The older version of the laguna looks better due to the fog lights

In my opinion the golden age of touring car racing. So many manufacturers and so many cars that became cult icons because of the BTCC

[@rrr579123]

One of my favorite BTCC cars

[@MWRaceRally]

rrr579123 My number 1 favourite 😊

[@taketimeout2share]

Best looking car of that era. Want one. Actually two, but must be sensible.

[@Anonymous-vc9do]

I dailly drive one :)

[@taketimeout2share]

@@Anonymous-vc9do You lucky so and so! I nearly bought a perfect Green Laguna 2 Ltr S (140 bhp na) a couple of months ago but I have nowhere to park it properly. Should not be out in the rain :( It is mint. Sigh....

[@Anonymous-vc9do]

@@taketimeout2share it's a grate car, is a grand tour it's a laguna 1 1.9 diesel engine 107bhp perfect for daily use 😊😊

[@fabioluisprecoma6899]

I have my Laguna 2.0 16v. F4R 00/01 in Brazil since 2009. Its a wonderful car , but is Very dificult find parts and accessories . I Hope to keep in good conditions for many years. I like so much the cars of DTM 90' ... Thanks for the vídeo !

[@BrenTravisMusician]

Still such a good looking car, like the Espace of that era. Had a couple back in the day and though the revs were really high at 80mph it handled great. You have made a build that took me straight back to playing TOCA on PS1. You're a lucky bloke.

[@rickyrodriguez08]

Que auto tan increíblemente hermoso...

[@provencerenovauto5494]

Incroyable cette caisse 🤩 et sur Oulton Park ❤️

[@lollokemly7074]

Beautiful car

[@utilitarian]

Loved all the touring cars of this era. They were all beautiful in their own right. By far were the Renault Laguna, Peugeot 406 and weirdly the Nissan Primera!

[@english_electric7125]

The Mondeos were my favourite, it's a shame they had a rough patch. But I really like the '95 / '96 livery, think they looked great with the aero packages.

[@DannoAviation]

My personal favourite year of BTCC included this car… the 90’s was the peak of British Touring Cars.

[@The_sunday_lout]

Just stumbled across this, 95-99 were the best years of BTCC for me. Wish they could bring it back. The new regs are ok but just downstairs feel like the BTCC of old. Laguna was a nice car and TBH the only other car that could compete with the Primera of the time. But imo the whole grid looked awesome.

[@andrewgardner9615]

How far back and how low is the engine sat in the bay!!!Plus a proper torque wrench for the wheel nuts.Lovely Oulton Park.

[@DarrenMartin-x9v]

I had the Station Wagon version of the MkI Laguna. When I drove it with the window down the rear Hatch window would blow open & become an impromptu spoiler providing me with downforce so that I could get to the shops quicker!

[@DeadCry1000]

Lol This is exactly the sound of the Taxi from the France Taxi Movies :D love it

[@renomacca1967]

wonder if they used the espace sport halogen lights

[@monolinkster]

I've seen some of them run dish wheels on the rear

[@MWRaceRally]

It was quite common during the late 90’s for the teams to run dish wheels. I can’t remember the 1999 Laguna ever running them but the 1998 car definitely did. By 2000 I think all the cars had them!

I am sure one of these was at brands hatch on show, not sure which chassis it was, might have been plato's. Not sure if brands hatch sold it though, as we are going back 2013

[@germanturchetti6351]

I understood that the Laguna had been disarmed and destroyed after the btcc ended I know this information because many of the cars came to Argentina to participate in the cup of the nations but according to the Laguna they had been compacted something that would be terrible, to see if any British friend knows about this Greetings from Argentina

[@GADMonty]

Not sure how true that is are there are still quite a few Super Tourer spec cars in the UK in private ownership. Goodwood had a demonstration a few years ago with about a dozen of them from the 1996-2000 period.

[@drazenbudis7881]

The cars are safe and intact, dont worry

[@e36racer44]

[@ocanaldomehmeh1893]

What used to be the engine of this Renault Laguna? A 2.0L 16V? By the way whats the name of those rims? Cheers from Portugal!

[@cooperwilliams4686]

Yeah. 2.0 16 N/A 250/300 bhp. When Renault had Williams on board all of their race car were ridiculously good.

[@cyrilmarti4440]

Is it a F7R like Clio Williams or Megane 1 16V. But with double power.

[@fontheking5]

Around 300 hp +

[@after_midnight9592]

2.0 F4R, most likely with ITBs. Clio RS from that era has the same induction sound.

Hello, do you know when and where the Laguna runs this year?

I just keep an eye out on entry lists. It's most likely to run this year in the CTCRC Supertouring series at Oulton Park on May 28th if anything.

[@GTiR23]

Engine position is vastly different to the road going production Laguna, as was the case with all the super touring cars of that era, as low down and as far back as possible was usually the criteria.

[@grumpystony]

@@GTiR23 thank you. It blows my mind. I can visualize everything needed to do so in a rear wheel drive car but on a front wheel drive car. Iss the engine block moved back or the engine just leaned back towards the rear
