Going back to German quality, vs that of Polish, Czech, etc... Not only are
some DGs built in Slovenia (and sold as German), but also sales of German cars
have dropped, particularly VW...because of QC problems. It is a myth that East
Europeans build shlock. It did not take that long for Japanese manufacturers
to improve the quality of their products (remember Alan Sherman?), nor for the
Chinese. So why not East Europeans?

After all, if the market is in the West -- Europe or Americas --, manufacturers
have to deliver a good product in line with its price.

Cheers anyway, Charles
