I got a 2010 Jetta Sportswagen TDI. Love it. It's got about 30k miles on it and I haven't had any issues yet. Gets more or less the same mileage as a hybrid for about the same price but feels much more like driving a real car.
Test drive a few hybrids then test the TDI and tell me it doesn't blow them away performance wise. It's got a diesel engine so it should drive forever... someone will put 500k miles on it by the time it's scrapped.
It's my understanding that if you don't use cheap-o oil/fluids you shouldn't have any issues. I also worry about who to take it to besides the dealer if I have problems since it isn't an engine mechanics deal with every day.
The only issue is Diesel gas is freaking expensive now and it's mad stressful when your tanks in the red and you roll into a station that only has unleaded.
