Looking for some advice. Usually buy new cars every 3 years but in this case was waiting for the new A8. Was shocked at the price increase. I have owned 4 A8's. I am thinking of keeping my 2014 but should I be nervous about the mileage. I bought it new and have maintained it on time always doing what the dealer suggested. There have been hardly any repairs to the vehicles other than brakes (once and of course tires who knows how many tires!)
Should I be nervous about keeping this car.. most of my mileage is highway.

Thanks

I kept my 2009 D3 until it hit 105k then as if by magic every visit to the dealer started at $1500. Your trade in value is virtually nil now. If you hold on another two years, and your repair costs are minimal, say less than $5000, you are ahead of the game. At that point you'll have a car with approximately 130-140k miles on it, it's trade in value will still be nil, and you can pick up a lease turn-in 2019 at significantly less than sticker. My .02

For an accurate valuation of you car, visit nada.com. A 2014 A8 4.0T NWB with 110,000 miles clean trade in is ~$21K.

They offered me near nothing on trade for my fully loaded up 2011 at 120,000 miles. And I just spent a boat load of $ at 120,000 miles, couple of fuel pumps and another batch of suspension bushings and arms.

Third time on some of the bushings in the front end on mine. Be prepared to spend $$ up there over 120,000 miles.
