    I must say that I have always been puzzled by these threads. I have found
all of my VWs to be incredibly low maintenance, low cost vehicles. My Scirocco
hasn't given me ANY problems, even though it has had a turbo on it since it was
new (800mi)... All of the other VWs I've got are more or less stock, and they
have all been close to zero failure.

Note that I am making a strong distinction between failure and maintenance.
