Adam OPEL is German. The Spanish Zaragoza plant was built to produce Corsas (Novas) initially but now Corsas are built at various plants accross europe. I'm pretty sure Ellesmere dont make them but I do know Zaragoza dont build them exclusively any more.

they are German

most car manufacturers have plants around europe depending on costs/shipping etc.

Hell about 80% of Ford Transits are made in Turkey lol

opel was german to start off, but general motors bought them back in the thirties, then hitler had them for a bit until 1945 when the yanks got some of it back, & the russians nicked some, so now they are either german or american.... but considering it is only actually a brand name for a larger corporate identity & their products are sold as vauxhall, opel, holden & chevrolet, and are made on 5 continents, you decide
