Looks like it was a badge-engineered Opel Commodore A Coupe. The original German car was equipped with 2.2, 2.5 and 2.8 six-cyl. engines. The 2.5 was equipped with single carb. in the basic version, double carb. in GS trim and Bosch D-jetronic fuel injection in the top-of-the-range GS/E model. I have never heard of them being badged as Vauxhalls, but it's quite possible considering the extent of badge engineering between various GM makes. I don't know if it was a Chevy engine though. I don't think GM used the same engines in European and American cars.
As for the Ranger, that was a name used for Rekord/Commodore B cars, assembled from CKD kits and sold in various countries outside Europe with a different front treatment and trim.
