What would he have thought of my 1995 Golf, with its factory installed
"Matsushita-Panasonic", made-in-Japan, AC compressor??

Of course, the car itself was assembled in Mexico.... with an Israeli-made
fuel filter, Austrian intake manifold....

(IMHO) who was on the Type2 list many years ago who called himself "Doktor
Tim". The good "doktor" was highly critical of anyone who used non-German
parts on their VW bus, criticizing me once for buying a USA made windshield
for my '77 Westy. Yes, pure laziness on my part, as every glass shop in the
area was tripping over German made windshields for Bay window buses. I used
to joke that he probably imported German air for his tires.    Jeff
