Absar	This car was sold 7 months back at a shade above 98000 km. Au revoir.	3rd May 2012
Absar	This car has proudly crossed 47,000 km. The tyres were changed 500 km back and they're a beauty over the MRFs. Totally no tyre noise even at 170 km/h. I initially planned for Michelin PP2s but the tyre dealer said production had been stopped and they had old stock only and due to time constraints, I went for XM1 s.	16th June 2009
Absar	@ Xehaust, Thank you. I'm using Philips Rallye 90/100 for headlamps. The bluish light is from the strobes. Got the relay 2 nos of Philips Rallye 90/100 installation for around 800 rs. This was back in 2005.	14th February 2008
Absar	@ S Pathak, the difference between the stock filter and the K&N stock replacement filter is, the car gets an extra power surge and slight roar sound post 2,800 rpm. FE is increased marginally. But it also decreases if you keep revving the engine just to feel the power surge and hear the roar sound.	14th February 2008
Xehaust	Hey, nice clean car, which Headights are you using & how much do they cost?	14th February 2008
S Pathak	Hi, good to notice a fellow 1.6 nxt Ikon owner. Can you elaborate on performance differences you noticed after installation of K&N filters? Would love to hear more on that (pick-up, top end, fuel consumption figs, etc.).	14th February 2008
Absar	Today, the car has crossed 28,000 km!	17th January 2008

Absar	@ VC12. I know I should get a new HU, I didn't know that the OE HU for Ford around the world is Kenwood. Do you have that on your new Flair?	27th August 2007
VC12	Absar, ur Nxt needs a good head unit..checkout Kenwood the OE all over the world for Ford	27th August 2007
Absar	@ VC12. Mixed type of indigo & old dial eh? By chance does it have MPH reading too on the inside area of the speedo?	27th August 2007
VC12	Ford has set a good benchmark in 1.6nxt , Flair came up only bcoz of FE issues, all of flair is adoptions from 1.6 nxt series	27th August 2007
