I'm on my 11th VW TDI and none of them have let me down.

Original 1990s Golf TDI, Passat TDI, Vento TDI (Golf with a boot), Audi 80, Another Golf, Another Golf Mk 4, Fabia VRS, Octavia 2, Audi A6 V6, Octavia 3 1.6, Passat B11 1.6. Some of these have been low mileage (even new) and some over 180K.

The only electrical problems I have had is a drivers door window switch which cost me £20 and an hour or so of my time to replace, and a couple of headlight bulbs which Audi made really hard to get at (the manual says go to a dealer...). All the others worked even the 1990s Passat and Golfs with aftermarket ICE hacked into the wiring by fitters in a hurry.
