    Which is preferable - Ford or Tata?

    That is my view as well; Per below the "all new" Evoque is using Ford produced engines, and the word Volvo keeps appearing.

    I can be very patient waiting for the name Tata to become prominent - world leaders in 3 wheelers.

    I believe the new engines are coming from Jaguar as Tata bought JLR from Ford.

    Thanks mate,


    I think that answers a lot of my "Why are LR/Jag still using Ford tagged stuff?" and also Bbyer's comments about Volvo. Sounds like LR/Jag and Volvo are breaking free.


    I've often wondered how all these Intellectual Property rights work, years after the split ... and how Ford can use the same engine as the older D3 in their Territory range. Who actually created and 'owned' the design? And who actually owns the design of the other engines like the 3.0L TTD and V8 petrols.


    Kev.

    Aston Martin or Ford Mondeo?

    Another example of Ford "design" is the new Mondeo or Fusion as it is called in North America.

    [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Mondeo"]Ford Mondeo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]

    I can only assume the Ford still owns Aston Martins design group or .....

    James Bond will probably drive up in a Ford in his next movie.

    As to engine ownership, I suppose the guys who currently have the tooling assume they own the design. The Rolls-BMW / Bentley-VW tangle of a few years back suggests otherwise.

    This doesn't look bad. Reportedly the Freelander replacement / baby Disco. Might even consider one for SWMBO if they end up looking like this ...............

    Cheers .........
