Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

To determine which entities owned the Land Rover brand before it was acquired by Tata Motors, let's consider the history of the brand's ownership:

• British Leyland: Land Rover was originally part of this company until its restructuring. British Leyland later evolved through various changes and ownership structures.
• British Aerospace: Acquired Land Rover when it bought Rover Group from the British government in 1988, which included the Land Rover brand.
• BMW: Purchased the Rover Group in 1994, and with it, Land Rover was part of its operations until BMW decided to sell Land Rover to Ford in 2000.

Given this historical background, all these entities owned Land Rover at different times before Tata Motors acquired it. Therefore, the correct answer is:
