Default GMD Focus T190

I have been looking around for pictures of a GMD focus but am struggling to find any information on them. Does anyone have any pictures of them?

Also what specs are they?

I have found a few models T130, T190, T230, T230r and some people say T250. Whats the difference between them?

I believe the T190 was the most common, with most of the others being T230's.. the number is relative to horsepower.. they're mildly turbocharged zetecs running a T25 type turbocharger and Pectel T2 management. Mountune were responsible for the mapping, at least.

I believe Paul Hills was involved in the development of some of them.

What is the T130 then just a N/A 1.8/2.0?

most people have broken the original bumpers so just fit standard ones in place as you can no longer get original bumpers,wheels should be 17"old type team dynamics imola with the big single looking touring car style nut in the middle and interiors were all up to the original purchaser whether they wanted bucket seats or leather etc as they were just options,i have pics i could email but dont know how to post sorry.

I too have 1, bought it last year and needed a bit of TLC.
I have the original brochure from Dagenham Motors, and additional info i've managed to piece together. They were individually designed by the customer with various available options. The collaburation of GMD Gordon Spooner Engineering/mountune/drps disbanded within a few years, but formed after focus RS failed safety test putting production back 2 yrs and nothing to win the rallye scene. GMD said give us some motors and we'll design something, and produced the T190/230 & 230R (full rallye spec) The brochure does have a picture of the T130/140 but the mechanic that built them Baz Cannon, knows nothing of them!

let me know if you need any other info
