Oh and another Czech car company from memory is Skoda? Though they are owned by Audi now.

And Porshce too, he cam from the Gablonz area of Bohemia (Czechoslovakia after 1919 and the Paris Peace Conference) where he worked for Tatra and nicked the rear air cooled engine layout from them and called it his own.

Syncope: nope, not Lift. I can't believe no one has guessed it yet.

3: AMC

from the renault website:
Quote
A demand for smaller, more fuel-efficient cars soon arose and European cars seemed to be well adapted to this market. Renault then decided to take its chances, and bought the US firm American Motors Company, along with its plants, network and the Jeep brand in particular. In 1979, Renault acquired a 22.8% equity stake in AMC. Its stake in AMC would rise to 46.4% in 1980, for a total of 55% when including preferred shares.
