10-14 bar is in the acceptable to good compression range, so why not.

8 bar is rebuild time, as decreed by VW.

Oil consumption is a tad high to be honest, possible piston rings if compression is at the lower end.  But you never know until you pull it all apart as it could also be poor valve seating, particularly on the exhaust valves.

I say go for it.  If you've got a contingency fund, life's too short to procrastinate.
