Congratulations on your new vehicle. Those alloys are HOT!

Have a satisfying and wonderful ownership experience.

Congratulations! Those alloys are really looking good on Silver colour.

Looking forward to interior pics and your initial expereince.

fantastic looking, but somehow the from the front i personally prefer grey or black xuv 500

between nice choice of alloys

raj_5004 · 24th October 2011, 13:07

your XUV looks H-O-T buddy. After looking at your car, I feel going for a W6 with all these accessories makes sense. The alloys is giving it a different stance altogether.

Enjoy your ride.

Great looking side profile.
Alloys matches well to silver.
Congrats

vrvarier · 24th October 2011, 14:16

Congratulations. Love the car. May be my next one. Just bought my car, hopefully she keeps me happy for a long time. BTW, interior pictures, please.

sukrit7 · 24th October 2011, 14:17

Congratulations! The car sure looks brilliant.
Were you around LSR college/bluebells school today? Between 1 and 1.30?

Also does it support all well known formats like DivX, XVid, MPEG (1,2,3,4) and if any Full HD formats like m2ts, or mkv?

The dvd player is embedded in the roof mounted screen and it costs 13.5 k for W6 as in dash does not have DVD player. It also has USB and SD card reader and 8-16bit game CD with game remote.
The audio is routed to speakers through FM-TX button and it works in 88.6 FM frequency and gives decent stereo sound. It boasts of playing Mpeg-4 and giving 5.1 , Dolby and tackling AC3 formats. Iam yet to try it.
.mts extention arent played as I had hundreds of videos in the USB from my FullHD sony handycam. In fact even the PC VlC player cant handle .mts ones. I had to download HD Lite player to play them.

For W8 the roof mounted screen is costs 10k sans the inbulit DVD function and its just an extended screen with rest of the functions done by in dash DVD
For W8 it comes for 10k sans the DVD player and is only a screen

Congrats Pankaj. She looks amazing in silver and those hot alloys.

Do you know what is the PCD for those alloys? My w6 silver would be delivered next week so wanted to know what PCD it has so that i can look for after market alloys.

jacksons · 24th October 2011, 19:33

Congrats Pankaj, in silver it looks great, silver doesn't need lot of cleaning as black and I say one shouldn't repeat the color.
Side moldings are quite slanting, is it the way to put them ?
Enjoy your XUV for long long time.

Congrats on an amazing buy. I think silver looks better then black or white on the XUV. You took a very mature decision in not going for the W8 because the electronics are all relatively untested yet. W6 will serve all your needs I am sure. Do post detailed pics mate as its a new launch and everyone is eager to see it inside out.

Hope to spot you soon in Delhi. Are those first set of pics clicked at the NSP complex with the tv tower in the background? Where are you put up in Delhi?

Check out sai mag wheels for your alloys. They have got a huge collection and you will love the whole experience.

Did that before but for 17" collection, they have for cars only and not for SUV's i guess cause all of them are under 114 PCD. For SUV's it should be around 140-150 i think. Any other site?

ahmed26 · 25th October 2011, 05:54

Congrats Pankaj.The XUV looks great in silver.

But,personally,I feel the chrome on the sides is a bit overdone.Liked the sides without it, especially on this colour.

_raVan_ · 25th October 2011, 08:42

Congratulations on your XUV! Its looking fabulous, though personally, the side door protectors should have been body colored.

The alloys looks fab, and it blends well with the car! Mahindra should have provided the TPMS on the same for the W8, it would have found many takers.

Do post more interior pics
