    The first world mass automobile manufacturer outside the USA was in France which was founded by a man named André Citroën, in France the word for lemon is "citron" so people in the USA in all their competitiveness related Citroën Automobiles as being sour lemons and that's why we call crappy cars today lemons :-)
