I have an 03 Passat I bought used with 55K. I currently have 105K on the clock. My biggest expense came around 105k when I had timing belts, valve cover gaskets, sensors, evap system replaced, not to mention plugs, wires, filters, brakes, tires and struts. Its a good riding car and well built IMO - not a squeak or rattle. Interior has help up well. My A/C just crapped out and I still have the original clutch (which probably needs replacing soon).

I keep postponing buying something else because life gets in the way. I would consider buying another VW. I will agree German cars (I have had a few) are expensive to maintain after their warranty expires.
