People rag on VW/Audi/Porsche claiming they have expensive cost, and are unreliable

2 new VW’s in the garage, with a combined 45000 miles. Only routine servicing.
My 98 A4 has 242000 miles and it’s been the best car I’ve ever owned. It’s now at the age parts are wearing out. Exhaust rotted, the original MAF failed last week at 241800 miles. Who the hell gets that kind of mileage out of a MAF?

Of course I maintain my cars above factory standards. Use Shell 93, and change the oil every 5K miles.

The Boxster is a 99 with a full service history, that I will Keep on top of.
