Congrats Motorlover on your pricey purchase ,
Thanks for sharing your detailed ownership review.
I got mine delivered (Petrol: SX-Passion Red) on 9th May & surely missing it as I had to travel on business tour just after 5 days. Overall it has left "Value for money" impression & worth waiting .While reading your review felt like reading my own hunting experience. After TD, I fell in love with its interior & features.
I'll appreciate if you could answer my few questions:
1.Did you ask extended warranty? I was told, it is still not offered till now.
2. While searching on the net,came to know that speed auto door locking fuction, not available on some i20 models can be enabled by service mechanic on i20, worth to enquire if it can be activated on xcent as well?

Happy motoring :)

Thanks xcentlover. Congrats to you as well. Hope you get to drive it very soon.
The extended warranty isn't yet available.Infact I am still awaiting my mud flaps..
Also I inquired about the speed auto door locking. The service manager told me that it breaks performance so they had to discontinue it. Unfortunately it isn't available for xcent.

I just completed my free servicing at 1535 kms. It was completely free. I had ordered bumper guards from jazzmyride.com.Below are the pics.

Hi Motorlover

How does that bumper guards contribute to the overall looks of the car?

And did you do this yourself or took it to service station to fix it? thanks in advance

Hi fabz. I was also a bit apprehensive about fixing them.But they don't seem to hamper the looks.I shall post full view pictures of the same shortly.I got it fixed from the service station.They did not charge me for that.

Thanks Motorlover for your quick reply,
Just one curious thought, how it affects performance? Was you able to digest explanation given by service manager?
Those bumper guards looks really nice. I am also planning to put them. Could you please upload photos from far to see how it looks from distance.
Although promised to get during delivery, I am also waiting on mud flaps.
Cheers.

Hi Motorlover, Congrats on your new ride!! Your Xcent looks great in silver color.

Thanks for your ownership review. It will definitely help people looking to buy this well kitted car. Even I am planning to buy a Diesel Xcent S (O) variant. Going through your review I feel pretty confident in getting one booked for myself in a day or two.

I have uploaded some more pics with bumper guards.I feel the silver color goes very well with the cladding's.The mud flaps finally arrived and got them installed too.

Xcentlover, I wasnt too happy with his explanation.But i guess I will have to live with it.

Also got new floor mats , as the one's provided them wont really serve me with the rains about to begin.

Thanks gagan.

I had a minor problem with the car fuel tank cover.It used to not open widely. They sprayed it a bit and it seems to work ok now. In terms of driving, the engine seems to have become more smoother day by day.

Hi Gagan,
Thanks a lot. heartiest congrats to you as well. Those scuff plates looks awesome & matches interior blue theme well so never looks like aftermarket stuff.

Cheers.
