Default My New White SX4 Vxi with Bodykit, Spoiler and Leather Seats

Hi All,
First of all would like to thank you all for your reviews and comments on this forum, it really helped me a lot in deciding which car to purchase. I have been viewing this forum from the past 1 year when I was in Singapore and since I was planning for a new car when I am back. Finally, I decided to purchase SX4 and purchased it on 10th Sept.
Already driven 2000 km and no problems at all. FE is around 13-14 kpl in City with 70% A/C. I will post the remaining pictures soon. Also planning to change my tyres please suggest.

Must have cost you a bom for the body kit.

It costed me 20k for the body kit, got it as a MGA from Rohan motors, i think NTF is their partner to provide Body kits. I am planning to change my stock tyres and rims. Need some suggestion on what size to go for in order to increase the GC by 10 mm.

i will post some interior pictures soon.

Congrads Neeraj. The car looks good in white. Now you need some good alloys to complete this.

Congrats, and the car looks cool. Welcome to the VXi club. There seems to be a lot of VXis out there, but few and far in T-BHP. That's a stunning mileage you are getting! Almost unbelievable.

Any reason you got a VXi instead of ZXi?

The reason I bought a VXi was because I did not take any loan and had made cash down payment. So even that few thousands were becoming a bit difficult to extend my budget.

Abt Mileage even I was shocked as my first tank gave me 11.8 kmpl then immediately after my 1st service(1000km) I got some 10.4 kmpl first tank full but from then onwards for the past 800-900 km i am getting 14kmpl. One reason maybe, as I travel from Noida to gurgaon daily but on off peak hours ie around 12:30pm and back by 9:30 pm. The traffic is generally not bumper-to-bumper and I cruise between 50-100kmph except few crossings, hence less involvement of gear change.
