Whats the betting that almost all those registrations were built in the same plant

Pretty sure my newer (56 reg) 'C' was built at Zaragoza - rings a bell anyway.

I doubt that there's much in that, I know in Fords they used to bring cars over from the different plants and foreign staff and have them each inspect each others' cars but they wouldn't necessarily know whose car was whose. The lead inspector would have been round them first and they would lose points for missing stuff so they basically had to pick up on everything. I know a team from abroad once documented a vast number of faults on one of their own cars.

If it was true though, it would be good to try and source one with that special opel badge.

Infact seeing as there are no vauxhalls in southern ireland, there are only RHD opels, i would probably just buy one of those instead, if the theory of opels being built better was correct. It would only be a case of popping over the border for me as i am from northern ireland.

All Vauxhall V6 engines are bulit in Liverpool.

Production stopped in Luton.

Mainly Zaragoza and they also have Russelhuim in Germany were a vast amounts of the Vauxhall based platform is bulit.
