Unusual here, too, but they were officially sold here. As Wiki says http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vauxhall_Chevette from October 1980 until April 1982 were sold 12.332 Chevettes in Germany. As a cheap stopgap between the end of the Kadett C and the start of the Kadett D before the Corsa A came.
P.S. It's also said, that it was a complete Vauxhall, so at repairs problems came up, due the inch-measures, screws and so on.
As I mentioned before, the Chevette and the CF are the only models, which are listed explicitly as Vauxhall in the list of the German car insurance classification. The newer Vauxhalls, as my Vectra, have Opel-codes, all older, original Vauxhalls doesn't exist in this list.
P.S.II: no, with exactly this front badging the Chevettes were sold here. Just the "Chevette"-badge, no Vauxhall-griffin anywhere.
P.S.III. yes, the Scimitar is an UK-car. Reliant was never existing on the German market.
This one, spotted last June on the classic car even in Bockhorn, was a private import, too. But from Switzerland, if I remember correctly, what the owner has said. The "PRINZ"-badge he has mounted to tease the people. It was really funny to stand besides and listen, what the people are guessing.
