Yes, and indeed the British had it much easier in Egypt. My point is that the 8th Army (much larger than the combined Army group Africa in late 1942 and fully motorized) eventually advanced all the way from Egypt to Tunesia.
But IIRC Rommel did not put up much resistance after the defeat at El Alamein and the US/UK landings in NW-Africa. He just pulled back to Tunesia and made a stand there. This was a far cry from 8th Army defending the Quatarra line.
