I got home the Xylo E6! UPDATE: Pics & 3000kms report (post #106 onwards)

vinayrathore · 8th February 2009, 14:58

Hi Guys!

Finally after a long round of discussions and speculations, I got home the Xylo E6. Have been reading this thread for two-three weeks and finally decided to go for it.

The sheer fact that we do not have other option in this price tag with all the features in this world, I think the over all package is really worth going for.

Here are the pics. Please excuse me for the bad quality as was not carrying the camera. A full review will follow soon.

Congrats.

Whats inexcusable to me, is that after all the research, they couldn't make the lines flow well - it makes the innova look well rounded - yes I'm a fan of Italian designs - or even Fords ...!! All said, at that price, its well worth a buy. RIP Tavera !

Vinay,

Congrats on the buy! I guess the first ownership of Xylo on Team BHP. Please put your initial ownership experience. from driver's & passenger's point of views.

BTW What was the OTR prices? Did manage to get any discounts?

Enjoy the new ride!

@vinayrathore : Congrats on your new buy. I guess this is the 1st xylo in team-bhp.

HappyWheels · 8th February 2009, 15:24

Vinay, congrats on the buy!

First step - please start your own thread! I believe this is the first one on T-BHP. Let's celebrate the new addition together!

Or, maybe you can request the MOD's to make a new thread from your post.

Wishing you many many miles of pure bliss!

vinaydas · 8th February 2009, 15:30

congratulations from one vinay to another

may this mile muncher serve you well.

Thanks Phamilyman! Yes, I agree that the Innova has a better build and finish but you get a lot for your money with the Xylo!

Sure, I thought will start a new thread for the full review.

MODs, if possible, kindly move my post to a new thread.

Thanks again all of you!! Will post the full review post running in as its only then that I will be able to unleash the eagle to the fullest. Done 1400 Kms

Congrats on your new ride. Look forward to your review.

OT: Noticed there is a Sorry on your music player lol.

sanstorm · 8th February 2009, 17:06

Congrats on new buy + being the first on T-BHP.

I could recall the Logan time, when initially there was lot of criticism on build and price, which eventually turned into appreciation of space and economy; followed by decent number of purchases from forum members.

I am sure here history is repeating - another Mahindtra baby in form of Xylo would also follow the footsteps.

speedzak · 8th February 2009, 17:07

Congrats buddy!
How was your overall purchase experience? Booking, post booking, payment terms, offers, accessories, delivery etc..??
Any tip to be noted while going for a Xylo?

Please start knocking your keyboard. I think these tips and experience info will help people out here.

Ok, Vinay. You have your thread now. So, gone on, start with the report.

And you have already covered 1400kms!

Man, you are driving, arent you!

abhinav.gupta88 · 8th February 2009, 17:12

Congrats on the purchase.
By Any chance were you near Rajghat yesterday. I think i saw your car there!

jkdas · 8th February 2009, 17:20

Congrats

Do keep us updated about the ownership.

I felt the Xylo to be a VFM product after I TDed it. Good buy.

lurker · 8th February 2009, 17:25

Please provide some pics of interior, rear seats, leg space etc

shuvd · 8th February 2009, 17:29

Congratulations Vinay. Please put up a detailed report A.S.A.P! Your ride looks nice but is crying out for a nice set of alloys and wider tires.
