Porsche 911 Targa 4 2016 review - pictures

The extra performance of the turbocharged engine goes some way to making up for the extra weight added by the folding roof mechanism.

Our car was fitted with Porsche's excellent seven-speed manual.

The engine has greater torque lower in the rev range, making for a more relaxed drive.

Added fuel economy from the downsized turbo increases this cars appeal - it's not a purists 911.

The Targa 4 is still fitted with all the qualities you'd expect from a Porsche.

Porsche's four-wheel-drive system gives loads of traction, while accurate steering lets you place the car perfectly on the road.

Porsche's button-heavy interior remains, but quality is fantastic and it's surprisingly roomy.

The contrasting bright silver roof bar gives the car an elegant, simplistic look.

The Targa's main weak point is it's price - it's a very expensive car.
