Except fot the front, it looks very much like it. European Ford Granada Ghia prototype or study?

Well, I can't find better. What I can say is that the body side sculptures and the rear are from a Ford Taunus. The front is from a Granada. The door handles are Taunus or early Granada. The Ghia badge is obvious. The plastic bumpers date the car from the eighties. And there is strangely no separation o the rear window.
So: A Ghia proposal for the last Taunus that never made it to production?
