Worst German Cars Ever Built
In the modern sense they may be known for some award wining, elegant and top of the line vehicles presiding on the market, but that doesn't mean "German Reliability" isn't open for a few errors every now and then. There's a fair share of junk line machines, some of which you may or may not have driven some time ago. But that's what mistakes are for, right?
