Lada is the trademark of AutoVAZ, a Russian
car manufacturer. It was chosen for exports over the domestic

Western Europe selling the Lada Riva in large quantities during
the 1980s, but subsequent models have not enjoyed the same
success as the Riva. Its headquarters are in Togliatti (Samara
Oblast or province).

Lancia (Lan-cha) is an Italian automobile
manufacturer founded in 1906 by Vincenzo Lancia and which
became part of the Fiat group in 1969. The company has a long
history of producing distinctive cars and also has a strong
rally heritage. Modern Lancias are renowned for presenting a
more luxurious alternative to the models in the Fiat range upon
which they are based. One of the firm's trademarks is the use of
letters of the Greek alphabet as the names of its models.
Lancia is also famous for many innovations concerning the
automobile sector. These include the first full-production V6
engine, in the 1950 Aurelia, and earlier experiments with
V8 and V12 engine configurations. It was also the first company
to produce a V6 engine and a V4 engine (although these were
later found to be unreliable).

LEMON LAW

|
Lemon laws are United States state laws that remedies to consumers for automobiles that repeatedly fail to meet certain standards of quality and performance. These vehicles are called lemons. The federal lemon law (the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) protects citizens of all states. State lemon laws vary by state and may not necessarily cover used or leased vehicles. The rights afforded to consumers by lemon laws may exceed the warranties expressed in purchase contracts. Lemon law is the common nickname for these laws, but each state has different names for the laws and acts.
In California, lemon laws cover anything mechanical, including a toaster, as does the federal lemon law. The federal lemon law also provides the warrantor may be obligated to pay your attorney fees if you prevail in a lemon law suit, as do most state lemon laws.

| LIGIER |
 |
|
Ligier is a French automobile maker created by former racing driver and rugby player
Guy Ligier.
The firm entered the automobile business with the Ligier JS 2, a central-engined sports car for the road powered by the same Maserati V6 engine as the Citroën SM. The Maserati V6 engine had a modern design and the JS 2 was considered by many as a well designed car with a very good power-to-weight ratio. The final SMs were also produced in the Ligier factory in Vichy. The 1973 energy crisis caused such a decline in the market for the JS 2 that production ceased soon after, and the firm changed its focus to microcars. Ligier is now owned by Piaggio.

| LINCOLN |
 |
 |
|
Lincoln is an American luxury automobile brand, operated under the
Ford Motor Company. Founded in 1917 by Henry M. Leland and acquired by Ford in 1922, Lincoln has been manufacturing vehicles intended for the upscale markets since the 1920s. Ironically Lincoln's prevalent competitor
Cadillac, was also founded by Henry M. Leland having acquired the assets of The Henry Ford Company. While Lincoln was the best selling luxury marque in the United States as recently as 2002, Lincoln lost ground to its competitors. To combat this recent slide in sales Lincoln has unveiled three new models, the
MKZ sport sedan, MKS luxury sedan, and MKX crossover sport utility vehicle.
