50%-50%
i have this passat for more than 3 years so far replaced windshield wipers motor, front cv joints with axle, just got whole cd/radio player broken, some emission sensors and have been driving with "check engine" light on for 2 years (due some stupid emission sensors!) and battery replaced! so you should really consider this-this car is bad on electronics! otherwise just keep up with maintenance and you'll be good!

7 year review
Bought new (3/02), have approx 72K miles, no major problems. Several recalls, but dealership tended to quickly/efficiently. Had the Timing Belt job completed at 65K, did not want to risk going to 95-105K as VW suggests in manual. Very fun car to drive. Based on some posts, I guess I have been lucky. But I do follow the maintenance schedule religiously and use Synthetic oil!
Great car
I purchased my 2002 GLS Passat about a month and a half ago. It is a very solid capable automobile. I love the body style. I love the solid feel of the car. It is terrific on the highway. Around town the 1.8T is terribly anemic with the automatic transmission.
Great
This car is great, and i really enjoy, great buy for the money
