The current meaning of the adjective flagrant â obviously offensive or disgraceful â is thought to derive from the Latin legal term in flagrante delicto, which literally meant with fire still blazing and is used figuratively to describe a situation in which the criminal is caught red handed.
The Ford Motor Company (commonly referred to simply as Ford) is an American multinational automaker headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. It was founded by Henry Ford and incorporated on June 16, 1903. The company sells automobiles and commercial vehicles under the Ford brand and most luxury cars under the Lincoln brand. Ford also owns Brazilian SUV manufacturer, Troller, and Australian performance car manufacturer FPV.
Best Answer: Ford just sold Jaguar and Range Rover, so that's no longer on the list. They have a one-third interest in Mazda (the Ford Escape, and Mercury Mariner were designed along with the Tribute by Mazda). Volvo is a Ford subsidiary, and the C-30 (I recently put a client in one) is built on the Mazda 3 platform.
