So it breaks my heart to say this but, Akon is a fraud. His car theft ring: FALSE. Time behind bars: FALSE. The guy lied to our faces and created a persona that has an unbelievable story to it.
Akon has only been convicted of one felony, for gun possession in New Jersey. He plead guilty and got 3 years probation.
Another arrest in 1998 in Atlanta, has been capitalized by Akon and became the big lie that was his “car theft ring” In reality, Akon was arrested for possession of a single stolen BMW and held in jail for a couple months before the charges were dropped

Tata, a large Indian steel company is finalizing their purchase of Land Rover and Jaguar from Ford for $2.3 billion hopes to turn around these failing brands in Europe and especially in the US. Over the past 18 years, Jaguar cost Ford over $10 billion while last year Land Rover had a profit of $1.8 billion. This is good for Tata since they currently produce a line of basic trucks and the world’s cheapest car, the Tata Nano
Tata plans to turn Jaguar back into the premium car maker it once was and lose the old and retro styled looks much like Cadillac has done. The reason why this is great for Tata is that since Ford is having such difficulty in their home country, they are getting rid of brands to focus on resolving their downward spiral at home thus giving Tata a great bargain at two long standing and recognizable car brands known throughout the world.
