I would certainly be interested, but it does sound like a fair amount of work by you. I'll have a quick look about to see if we can save you some time!

Humm, a bit of a start; although, from a quick scan, not 100% accurate!:

BMW Group + BMW AG
GM Daewoo
DaimlerChrysler Group + Auto + Daimler-Benz (Cars) + Daimler-Benz (Auto) + D-Benz Group + Chrysler Corporation + Chrysler Automobile + Chrysler (CFC on equity basis)
Fiat – Group + Auto
Ford – Group + Automotive +Ford Europe +Ford Espana + Ford UK + Ford Werke + Jaguar + Volvo Car
Fuji Heavy Industries (Subaru)
General Motors – Automotive + GM (GMAC on equity basis) + GM Europe + GM Espana + Opel + Vauxhall + Saab Automobile
Hindustan Motors
Honda
Hyundai Motors + Kia Motors
Isuzu non-consolidated + consolidated
Mazda – consolidated + non-consolidated
MG Rover
Mitsubishi Motors
Nissan Nissan Motor + Nissan MM UK
Porsche
Premier Automobile
Proton
PSA Peugeot Citroën
Renault Group + Automobile
Suzuki
Toyota + Daihatsu
VW Group + Audi + Seat + Skoda.

I don't think it's complete
Ferrari to Fiat
Lambo, Bentley & Bugatti to VW
Rolls to BMW & so on

Go to www.speedycars.net and you'll have a list of what manufacturer belongs to which company

It's quite difficult to do this as Lambo belongs to Audi and Audi to VW. And that's only one example

^ as I know, mitsu was never really owned by chrysler, only had +- 30% of the company's shares, and some months ago chrysler decided to sell their mitsu's part
of course I could be wrong

the whole deal with partial ownership makes this concept quite a bit more difficult to execute. I'd still like to see something tho, pretty good idea

I thought VW owned Porsche, or is it that they share technology?(Cayenne/Toureg)

from what i understood Chrylser only decided not to invest anymore money into Mitsu, not take out their share, because i know alot of vehicles are going to be coming out. Maybe its like VW and Porsche where they just share certain technologies.
