There is an interesting item in this month's National Geographic. On around the 15th page (they don't number the pages until about the 40th page which is page 1, go figure) Anyway, it shows an exploded diagram of the BMW new Mini showing where all the parts are made. Of course the Mini is somewhat of an oddball being made in England in the first place.

The only parts made in Germany are the outside mirrors and the grille. Bearings from the UK.
