My City Aspire 1.5

[hash737]

Got my Aspire Prosmatec 1.5 a couple days ago. Thought I should create a dedicated thread to keep a log of any mods I make to the car overtime and add the mileage over time.

Mods:

Replaced stock EuroStar 175/65/15 tires with Yokohama Advan DB 185/65/15

Mileage:

15KM meter reading when taken out of show-room first time.

Initial fuel = 34 litres i.e. 2500rs (@ ~rs 73/litre) May 2015.

2nd Refuel = 33.33 litres - tank 100% filled (42 litres full) for another 2600rs (@ ~rs 78/litre).

Meaning about 9 litres left from first time refueling (42 - 33).

At 2nd refuel, meter reading: 215 KM.

Total traveled = 200 km at 34 MINUS 9 litres = .... 200km in 25 litres.

= 8 KM per litre. (this was mostly in 2nd, 3rd gear rarely in 4th with AC on all the time) - I have been slowly cruising around at slow speeds across outer city roads in the running period and to get to know the car better.

The instant mileage per hour on the car meter easy touches 12-14 km/l when cruising over 40 kmph so its not bad so far.

Comments are welcome.

Any ideas for mods are welcome as well.

I'm planning on getting these H4 replacement bulbs from US next month since another member Umair mentioned having installed these in his city. (Question: will these fit in my city headlights without any cutting of wires etc? I think its plug and play, right? [software guy here, not really my field]

I wish to update the navigation to a better one but it seems for now only the civic has a latest android navigation up and even that is in testing phases from the Tracking World guys.

/signing off day1 [ june 5th, 2015 ]

P.S. anyone knows of any gadgets / mods please suggest and for items give amazon links. I want to add upgrades as long as they don't require breaking / cutting anything

salam,

Congratulations on your new car. gorgeous colour.

Can i request you something please? the link you shared of Amazon, please do NOT buy these bulb, these Extreme white bulbs turn people blind. anyone infront of your car will be swearing at you 24/7. please be a civilized citizen and use the stock lights as those lights are provided with the CAR for a REASON. if you use these extreme white bulbs with Stock Lights and housing, it will turn everyone blind infront of you or passing by.

Be respectful on the road, your car it beautiful.

Thanks. You've good reason. Ok let's stay with stock lights.

Congrats bro. May Allah make this ride safe for u and family.

I owned a 1.5 Aspire manual in late 2013 and used it 14 months. On daily drive in Lahore with AC always on, it was giving me an average of 13+- and between 14-15km on highway/M2. It's. Great ride and I hope the Prosmatic version is also a pleasure and gives the required throttle, and it runs like anything if u are in the mood.

For tyres, I would recommend 195s as I didn't experience poor mileage due to it, however road trip and handling was much better.

Good luck.

Why?

Don't think over it just do it if you want your car to remain rust free in the next 4 years.

Hey @salim001,

I've updated the first comment with the details for 3rd refuel as well.

The mileage is surprisingly gone upto 13.1 kmpl for last 380 kilometers. Out of which 75 km are on motorway. which is pretty nice for a 1.5 Aspire Prosmatec

Details duplicated from first comment:

[I]--- Updated 15 june 2015 ---

3rd refuel = 29 litres = 2300rs @ 79 Rs. per litre

Meaning, 595km MINUS 215 KM (total speed meter reading at time of 2nd refuel)= 380 KM travelled in 29 litres till point of 3rd refuel.

Hence Mileage before 3rd refuel = 13.1 KMPL

i.e. [ 595-215 = 380km travelled in 29 litres = .. 380/29 = 13.1 kmpl ][/I]

Oh yes its pretty good, as you mentioned only 75kms on motorway rest were in city...
Cuz in karachi traffic i am getting roughly around 10km/l.

What AVG your 1.5 manual is giving both in city & on highways ?

[Thinking]

i dont think PIAA bulbs is the right choice.

go for philips extreme vision, it would be better.

Enjoy the ride drive safe. MASHA ALLAH.

[Thinking]

can you please share the exact cost of the car including the WHT and registeration.

what exactly did u pay to get the car home.
