If VW made the EA888 engine without a waterpump made of soft cheese.

As a mechanic who used to work on these cars daily, it really depends if you're willing to fork out the amount that's due every couple of years, the water pumps on vw/Audi/ Porsche and mercs are always prone to fail within a couple of years even if you go aftermarket.
Cons: water pumps prone to fail
my 2018 (build date Aug 2018) had no head gasket issues, although the water pump leaked prematurely.
Cons: water pump leaked prematurely
Vehicle:
