If it makes you feel any better mate,the germans only fastened the bits together,

Your engines from wales and your gearbox is from liverpool.

My ZS TDCi engine is made in Essex ;) Dave is right though, the petrol motor is made in Bridgend :)

Mine's German too! In all fairness I can't think of another country that I'd rather have build my car, efficient !Removed!.

Is there any reason to think that cars assembled in Germany are any better than those from Spain,

or the other way round.

Do Ford have different standards of inspection at different locations. If so, then should I decide to order a Fiesta, I should like to do so from the site that produces the highest quality.

Can any one give any facts on this point, or are all the comments just supposition.

Its all just supposition,the quality control is going to be just the same.

The only difference I can think of is theres an overnight shift in germany,In spain they only build for 16 hours a day,

So if you think the bloke fixing the bits on your car might not work as efficiently at 3 am as his colleague working in daylight hours,then a valencia product may be better for you.

If you order a car you dont get a choice of factory,you wont even know where the orders gone to till the car is built.

I think it's just a joke about the quality of Welsh workmanship. *Dives to avoid bullets.*
