Theon Design Porsche Targa 911 Review – Resto Mod 407bhp carbon British Singer 964 built for B roads. In this special drive review Jonny Smith takes the keys to Cotswold based Theon Design’s new open topped Targa restomod 911, which has a 3.8-litre 407bhp naturally aspirated aircooled flat six and weighs 300kg less than the original 964 Targa. With carbonfibre panels and strengthening, its lightweight focused resto modification means 1190kg kerbweight with all fluids on board. In other words, it’s light, it’s more powerful
