The world's leading carmakers have lined up to bid for Korea's Daewoo Cars, which is up for sale after the parent company got into financial difficulties.

Ford, General Motors, and DaimlerChrysler are all hoping to take over the troubled Korean firm.

DaimlerChrysler and Hyundai are bidding jointly for the troubled South Korean car maker Daewoo after announcing plans to tie up.

Meanwhile, GM and Fiat announced a joint bid for Daewoo, with a promise to keep Daewoo's brand name, a commitment to full employment for Daewoo workers, and a promise to creditors to allow some of their bad debts to be converted into equity of the new company.

Ford Motor Company, which already owns a controlling stake in Japan's Mazda, is the third bidder.
