Beautifully refined petrol engine, predictable handling, classy cabin, precise steering.
Not hugely fun to drive, poor residuals, pricey, uninspiring looks, diesel is a bit noisy.
A far superior Laguna. It's easy to drive and the four-wheel steering is a success. It's good, but not engaging.
Inside the GT is a place of calm. Road noise is virtually undetectable and there's very little wind flutter coming through into the cabin as well. The petrol engine is beautifully refined so conversations with your passengers are not in any danger of being drowned out by what's going on under the bonnet. The diesel's a bit more vocal, though.
Inside, the GT sports seats offer plenty of support and a good range of adjustment, but you'll have to tick the options box and pay £400 more if you want electric-powered seats. The steering wheel adjusts for rake and reach, but the chunky A-pillars can restrict your view particularly when you are pulling out at an angled junction. The view out of the back isn't that marvellous either.
You could go bonkers on the options list but the standard GT is pretty well kitted out. Along with 18inch alloy wheels, standard fittings include the four-wheel-drive steering, front sports seats in leather/alcantara with GT logo, twin chrome exhausts, GT front bumper, black headlamp backgrounds, smoked rear light clusters and body coloured rear skirt, pearl black door mirrors, a 30-watt CD/Radio with MP3 CD reader, leather steering wheel, aluminium gearknob and foot pedals, metallic paint, rear parking sensors, opening tailgate on Sport Tourer and hands free keycard.
