After Driving the VW I have to say that German engineering is over rated. Sort of like Scottish medicine. Resting too long on their laurels.

That's a damn shame, the Germans had a great reputation at one time.

I guess we have to change that old joke that goes something like:

HEAVEN is where:

The British are the government
The French are the cooks
The Italians are the lovers
The Germans are the auto mechanics

HELL is where:

The British are the cooks
The French are the auto mechanics
The Italians are the government
The Germans are the police
