I just hope the turbos are better these days. Last one I had was from 1985 and it died a few times. Engines were cheaper back then and I remember being able to drop in a used one for around $600. After the 3rd engine blew a head gasket, I got a different car.I get where you are coming from. There was a day when I said I’d never own a VW or a turbo’d vehicle. Certainly not both!
Then, I drove one.
