Oh, I didn't know that the VR6 was a troublesome engine. I've seen the 4 cylinders go over 200,000 miles (322,000 KM, if I converted that right) without anything major going wrong in the engine, so I just thought VW probably got the VR6 right as well.
Edit: 170,000 KM ~ 105,000 miles, by my imprecise reckoning.
