Many congratulations on acquiring one of the most sought after cars sold in India. The car looks smashing and I am sure every time you drive it you will come back with fun memories.
Last year around this time I was in the used car market to pick up something interesting and was eyeing the VRS. However due to the limited stocks and exorbitant price ended up picking a 320D.
If the existing set of tyres give you adequate grip I suggest hold on a little longer and change the alloy and tyres in one go. The VRS already has a stunning looking alloys IMHO. In fact you may choose to paint the alloys black - that will pop the wheels on a white car and go well with the red calipers.
I can see where you are coming from when you say you are not looking for remap now. I too jumped from a Duster to a 320D so each day was a new learning. Keep the funds aside (or build it up slowly) because once you get used to the power you would consider a remap. More so if you are an enthusiast ![Smile](https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.png) . Remap improves the over all drivability of the car and there is much more to it than just bumping up power.
Wishing you thousands of happy miles. |
