Porsche 911 Review

Safety and Security4 out of 5

This may be the most powerful 911 of all time, but that doesn't mean it's a car its owner should fear, as the days when you'd find 911-shaped holes in hedges on the outside of roundabouts are long gone. With stability and traction control, the GT2 will look after you long after you've forgotten what's good for your health. It has the usual plethora of airbags as standard and, while Euro NCAP has yet to get around to testing this sort of car, 911s are known to crash very well. You also get a Porsche Driving Experience day as part of the purchase price.

As far as security is concerned, over and above the standard alarm and immobiliser, the GT2 comes with a Thatcham 5-standard tracking system.
