I heard that the MK7 brakes have a long life, but it didn't really register with me until today. I picked up my car after having a tire balancing and alignment to correct some vibration, and I asked the service advisor if they checked my brakes. He gave me the measurement (which I forgot) and said they're practically brand new still. I said that's insane because I have 104k miles on the clock. He said there's no way those are the stock brakes, but I reassured him. I don't baby my car or brakes anymore, and overall I'd consider myself an average driver, so I'm very surprised that they wouldn't have significant wear by now. Kudos to VW!!
