Like most foreign hotels it’s only part built, let’s hope the cars are better built.

VW builds their SUVs in Slovakia. I think Q7, Cayenne and Touareg are assembled in Bratislava.

The new Cayenne is built entirely in Bratislava, earlier ones were finished in Liepzig, the others are indeed built there.

Off topic but look at Dyson, he makes nothing here!!

He does employ a large number of people in R & D in the UK though.

It is the way of the world that you manufacture where overall cost is lowest.
