Am I right in saying that Jaguar's share many parts with Fords? I know they are under the same ownership. Just need to know this for a uni project i'm doing.

What parts of Jaguar models are common in cheaper Ford cars? I'm trying to show that luxury manufacturers can reduce production costs by using share components.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
