Is my '02 A4q an unusual piece of junk, or just a piece of junk?

I have an '03 A4 1.8T and it's been completely solid and fault-free.
And I have to disagree that the B6 (type 8E) chassis build quality is lower
than that of the B2 (type 81/85)... as much as I love my 4000, there is
simply no way I arrive at that kind of conclusion.
