After driving nothing but M series BMWs for 20 years, I purchased VW Passat and Jetta turbos.

225K on the Jetta and so far, 115K on the Passat.

Only expenses so far... fuel and oil changes.

Good job with those cars. Main reason I buy Chevy’s is I never had a engine or transmission problem since 1967. And they are much cheaper to buy than BMW/Mercedes etc.

I switched from a 1978 VW Scirocco to multiple 3 series BMW's to present. ALL BMW's drive over 200k. The VW was great but the body rusted and the engine tired.
