Default Spain v Germany manufacture quality

I have heard that German made cars are generally higher / better quality than Spainish made cars. Is this correct? Does anyone have any evidence to support this?

Well I go to Europe almost every year and have some knowlege of their cars. We once Rented a SEAT (Made in Spain) it was decent car and very good gas milage it did 40-50MPG it had a diesel engine in it. Oh yea it had a VW jetta engine in it. So it's basicly a German car except the Body. Then my dad owns a Mercedes-Benz and never gave us a problem and my dad really drives it hard. So Spains cars cannot touch German cars. German makes their cars to last a Life-Time.

Yes, stay away from German cars!!!! VW's are garbage Mercedes-Benz are also crap we see alot of those in our shop all the time, I hate German cars!!!! [:@]
Please just buy a Ford , Chevy or a Dodge but, if you just have to have a foreign car get a Honda, leave euro cars alone even their own dealerships dont like to work on them. Not to mention parts for those cars are expensive and some shops will not even work on them. LOL

I am based in Europe and already have a Ford with quality problems. That is why I asked if Ford cars made in Germany are better than Spanish. I have been told bits but was lokking for more thoughts. Thanks.
