Does the Chimaera roof allow for the rear section to left up Targa Style ?

Yes.......

But why would you do that when you can pose with it down?

All it does is create more turbulance inside when travelling at speed with it up.

Generally, being married, driving at speed creates turbulence inside the car anyway. It's because I want to pose but suttle like. I want the boy racers round my way to think I'm actually embarrased on their behalf.

Glad to hear that others experience this too!

Anyone any ideas how to make good use of the space where the passenger seat used to be?

You could turn it into a little self-contained bedsit and move in permanently - think of the mortgage payments you'd save.

In my experience travelling in targa mode cuts down on backdraughts and turbulence - you can also see out the rear-view mirror - useful when reversing.

And it doesn't crease the rear window either.

Wasn't there a post about someone losing their rear screen leaving it in the "targa" mode?

Dunno, but I understand it has happened on Tuscans with the removable "hard Plastic" rear screen.
Not had any damage to mine, all seems OK
