Ford Scorpio, now there was a car that Ford got so impressively wrong that
they just gave up with big saloons in Europe badged as Fords after that.
I've found some photos here of the car, it is vile:

And why does Vauxhall (Opel in the UK) let HSV (Holden Special Vehicles)
import the Commodore Loonmobile as an Holden rather than rebadging it as a
Vauxhall Omega Thundersaloon? (Yes, this is confusing, UK: Vauxhall Omega,
OZ: Holden Commodore, US & C: Cadillac Catera, Rest of Known Universe: Opel
Omega.) That way Vauxhall could revive the spirit of Vauxhall Carlton
Thundersaloon.
