Mature driver, if toyota is what U want go for it.
I understand they are no longer as reliable as they once
were. For me I'll keep my MK7.5 and be happy.
I did my first oil change at <1K miles. I did it myself and very easy also oil filter and checked for metal flakes.
IMHO I'd NEVER go 10K miles on an oil change.
VW has lost it's way long ago but I hoped things would turn around. I have a 2019 GTI S and plan to keep it until the factory warranty is gone.
Next car will not be a VW or any of the Volkswagen family of fine autos.
Looks like the auto industry has gone insane. The new business plan sell less cars and make more money. As we all know this is not just the VW family of fine autos but all of them.
