Aaggoswami,

Thank you for your kind comments. I've tried to answer some of your questions below

Yup. Upgraded the headlights to 100/90W with relay

Agreed. I am just a little superstitious though - I'd like to think that the lack of punctures was part of the feelgood aura that surrounded the car
I had similar quality bridgestones on the Uno and the Innova, and I used to/still get quite a few flats on them after 25K km of running

In the city, about 10-11 was standard. On the highways, fully loaded, she gives a solid 13 if driven well. The problem is that the folks currently driving her now (my brother and our driver) rev the car harder because it feels slower than the other cars at home, especially when fully loaded.
