lord_jagganath 421 Report post Posted July 12, 2014 Have driven well composed FWD cars before, like my old Gen II Laguna. Hoping the Gen III is better. would still prefer RWD, if any did show up at my budget level. Tested that 2.7 HDi 407 sedan going for $6.5k on trademe... good chassis but the climate control equipment and the engine sounded horrendous. not quite a bargain at first driving a japanese FWD and a French FWD are worlds apart though. Dad's windom is a landwhale by comparison. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
