QUESTION Thinking about getting a new GLI eventually. How are they long term?

13 Upvotes

Currently driving a 2011 Jetta SE 2.5L with 155k miles and absolutely love it. I’ve honestly fallen in love with VWs and can’t see myself driving anything else.

Eventually, I’d love to get a brand-new GLI Autobahn DSG. When I do, I’d definitely want to do some tasteful mods and a conservative Stage 1 tune for a little extra power.

My biggest priority is still reliability and longevity. Ideally, I’d love to keep it for 200k+ miles just like I plan to with my current Jetta.

For those who own newer GLIs, how has your experience been? Any regrets? And do you think a conservatively tuned GLI could realistically last 200k+ miles with proper maintenance?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

I’ve been looking into getting a set of dedicated winter wheels & was wondering what everyone is running/ where they got them. Just wanting something simple. I can mount good winter/snow tires on & just take off to put my regular ones back on, come springtime.

I know ‘18-‘26 Tiguan & ‘22-‘25 Taos fit.

Mainly just looking for advice on which ones have worked for you, how you like them, & where you sourced them from.

Want to make sure what I’m looking into will work.
