The car was an absolute beast and a highway monster.

Hey folks, this is a small write up in honor of my XUV500 which I finally sold on 17th Oct few days before I took delivery of the XUV700. Kept the car for close to 10yrs and did about 71000kms during the period. Given that 50% of those kms were in Bangalore city you can imagine the amount of time that car spent idling stuck in Bangalore traffic . The car was an absolute beast and a highway monster. I covered countless places around KA, TN, KL, AP over the years and also my Leh trip with my family and it never broke a sweat. Ownership experience was very smooth with literally no issues beyond the usual maintenance that I did every 10K kms. One of the reason I chose XUV700 over the Tuscon/Kodiaq was my positive ownership experience with 500. Given it had black interiors and silver exterior it did age very well and I felt looked almost in new shape without any special treatments like ceramic coating or ppf.
Hopefully the next owner it finds will take care of it as I did over the years. Sharing few pictures I took for putting it on sale. I am sure you agree it looks pretty good for its age
