With my 1985 Golf diesel the door handles and CV joints were continuous repair issues. But the engine and transmission felt bullet proof.

The Prius I own needs a wheel bearing, the dash lights have problems, the HV battery needs replacing, the engine burns oil and the catalytic converter is fouled. And it's half the age and half the mileage as the VW Golf diesel was when I had it.
