In 1959 UK Daimler motors ( Now part of Jaguar) brought out a 2 seater sports car called the Dart . It had a two & a half litre V 8 engine . It was later found that Dodge USA had already registered the name so Daimler was not allowed to use it . Daimler reverted back to the cars original designation of SP 250 V8...although most people still knew it as the Dart.
