He he yeah the Germans really does use the Lego principle..

I have build alot of Opel cars the last 10 years or so, and here everything fits together across models and variations over a year span of like 30-40 years or so.

German engineers have always been known for their effeciency but in reality the germans have always done something very simple. "Never change a winning team"...

When it comes to german cars, they have always kept the things that work in the old model car, and tried new things with the things that didnt work.

Its quite fun actually
