I think it was the same TV series that showed the Lambo and Camaro factories. HD Net if I remember correctly.
This is the plant you are referring to, located in Wolfsburg, Germany, which manufactures the lesser-cost VW's such as the Golf and the New Beetle. There is an earlier transparent factory (2008) in Dresden harboring the luxurious Phaeton; - .a stunning automobile.

Factories : Company information : Volkswagen UK ... I encourage you to 'surf' the co.uk transparent factory website (in German) for eye-popping automotive pleasure.

And I do believe this was included in your AOL yesterday, under 'Business' as a tag to the struggle that GM faces . - . they have a wee bit of catching up to do.
