99 9-3 needs new turbo

Hi,
I took my car in for the 30,000 service. I told them the car did blow some blue smoke during winter. They ordered a new turbo. Also, they said my head was seeping, so they tightened the head bolts. I already had a new heater box, but my temp knob was starting to bind up again, so they replaced it. I was thinking about buying this car at the end of the lease, but I'm a little scared now. Is this car going to blow a head gasket after the warranty is up? Why did the turbo fail so soon? This car was maintained by the book and is in showroom condition with only 29,000 miles on it. What should I do? Can I trust this car?
Thanks for your advice.
Steves
