    The new Range Rovers are built on a BMW X5 chassis.
    Hate to correct you, but I am. I'll direct you to http://www.ford.com/en/default.htm where it shows that Ford does indeed own Land Rover, however Land Rover is still using a BMW design.

    Rover, the car company, was sold for 10 pounds, and a promise of 400 million pounds in loans. (loans to Rover from BMW) They are currently the largest british owner car maker.
