I forgot I had these photos on my computer!

Back when I bought the Laguna in 2019, I was still into my photography and practised my lightpainting skills 😁

Didn't do it much afterwards, but I very much enjoyed it!

A common complaint from MrsH since buying the Laguna in 2019 is the heaters were bloody awful.

Turns out the heater matrix was very blocked, so it was time to deploy the garden hose!

Result, a free fix and a toasty heater for the winter months. Even less reasons to keep the Mondeo now!

Final two pictures are a sample of what came out, including little silt pellets - always used distilled water when topping the system up!

This isn't the way round that you think it is.

Long road trip today, thankfully we're in the most comfortable car on the fleet!

Righted a wrong today!

Earlier this year, some scoundrel committed a retro crime and stole the splitter off the Laguna.

Today, the nice weather and a garage tidy-up gave me enough scope to fit the spare one!

Also changed the lower engine mount because I was tired of the transmission shunt 😅

There, now let us never speak of the exhaust pipe again.

We're probably the only people having road beers right now in a Renault Vel Satis 😎

Hmmmpf. Sub-optimal.

In a day designed to kick me hard in the teeth repeatedly, the passenger front window runner decided to crumble and this 'minor' carburettor fuel leak was discovered.

Naturally, I'm a fan of not bursting into flames, so the BX has been parked up until I get the bits needed to stop this s**t.

Oh, and Herman's replacement washer pump doesn't fit, because of course it doesn't.
