I have an early 2014 Model S with 100K miles that I love but I am not sure if it's wise to keep it past the 8 year battery/drivetrain warranty. I have had some repairs done every year for the last 4 years since the warranty expired. The costs have been < 600/year for those repairs so far. I am the original owner, and until recently I thought I would keep this car forever.
Most of the regular maintenance items except the battery have been addressed in this car. Repairs or replacements have included 1 drive train replacement, 1 screen replacement, LTE upgrade, all 4 door handles, trunk latch, rear axel/hubs, 12 v batteries etc.
What would you do? I would be looking at either a 3 or Y performance models as replacement.
