I’ve had good luck with VWs. Had an 08 rabbit I bought for like 10k with I think 17k miles. Drove it for about 80k miles. Only issue was the mirror glass on the passenger side fell in when I was driving down the highway. Fell off about 80k miles.

Got a used 10 Jetta a few years back with 70k for 5k. Still driving it. Got about 128k on it. Got it from a dealer where that car had been in its maintence system since new. First was a lease, then traded in. 2nd owner had it for about 50k and traded it in. Then I got it. It had the 80k service dine when I bought it. I did the tranny flush at 100k. And just did plugs at 120k a month or so ago. Only thing other than that are regular oil changes and replaced the battery when I did the plugs. Odd though.....my passenger mirror glass started to come off right about 90k miles. I noticed it coming lose while driving, so I pulled over and removed it. Super glued it back on when I got home.

Wife had an 08beetle we bought new. It was a fun car, no issues. Other than a lot of road noise.

We rented a car last year to go to Branson for a weekend. It was a 18 Passat Wolfsburg edition. Man, it was super nice and a blast to drive. In fact, once I’m in the market again, I’m looking at a Passat or GTI.

Knock on wood....no issues with my VWs so far.
