some development car or something. think there were only 3 made. 3litre v6 and come with an lsd or something like that. based on the st200.
one was red, one silver and one black.

Dunno about power mate.I thought they were just near enough 3.0 power.Must have a few goodies to make 250bhp.

found this on vectra site
There was a black one, silver one, and a red one. I think I'm right in saying that the silver one was written off.
Thurlby Motors commisioned the cars to be modified. They all had the 3 litre cadillac block, but more money was spent on the black one. If I remember rightly, the black one came with £14000 of reciepts. That included different gear ratio's/ final drives. LSD. Fully adjustable Koni suspension all round. Super Touring seats retrimmed in grey leather, oh, and the matter of 270BHP!
