I would agree with you there, Hand/built British,cars are superior, but when it comes to mass produced,i have to say that German quality control was far superior to that of Brit massed produced cars,take for instance,..a Ford,made in Dagegham,was no match for one built in Germany,..same car/model,different quality,British logic in the 60,s 70,s,when Japanese cars,started to gain a foothold in Britain,we embraced them because they were apparently well built and cheap by comparison,we threw money at them,let them build cars here gave them concessions on building factories,Then when these consessions ran out,TheJaps soon followed, hence the demise of British car manufacturing,TheGermans on the other hand,held the Japs at bay,and refined their cars to the level we have come to expect of all German made cars,
