Q: reliablity

asked by on May 15, 2017

Hello,

I'm looking to purchase a 2013 Volkswagen CC, 34,000 miles, TSI engine, DSG transmission. Are these automobiles reliable? I drive about 25,000 miles per year and would hope to keep this automobile until it see's 200,000 miles or more. Do you think this is feasible without foreseeing breakdowns/expensive repairs?

Thank you, Scott.

My car has 34000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
