MX - 7 seater - £30k

[Omar-p25l8]

I am considering replacing my Model 3 with a MX - as we need 7 seats.

Obviously I am fairly limited by choice given the 7 seat requirement - but are there any known issues/things to consider? For example, a 2017 MX with lower mileage vs. 2018 with higher? Slightly concerned about the lack (or potentially short) warranty - but anything newer than 2018 takes it out of budget!

MX is a money pit

Matrix heaters and drive shafts are two big ones at £1k+ a time, but lots to go wrong and usually does including suspension parts

Both PTC heater and drive shafts on older cars should all have been done under warehouse. What's the 'lots to wrong' items are you counting.

Ours has just passed its 7th year MOT, replacing the tires every 20-25k miles is the biggest maintenance cost over the last 3 years.

Drive shafts last 25k-30k before needing to be replaced again

Replacement PTC heaters fail, and there are 2 on a 7 seater

You yourself have said it’s been the most unreliable car you’ve ever owned
