I personally like Limited edition earlier we had booked red and white but when my bro saw the limited edition he was literally floored by it and we bought the limited edition.

And it does look different on the road.

I checked it today and it looks good man.

So now you have an option whether to go with white and red OR white and blue combination, if you plan to go with R15 v2.

Thanks man

I am not a good writer, yet I will try my best to create a report after completing 5K(just crossed 2k)

By the way what products do you use for washing,polishing and waxing ?
I am thinking of Waxpol car wash for washing, Motomax 2k rubbing compound to remove swirl marks and minor scratches, Motomax Protectant Spray for the plastic(unpainted) and Formula 1 carnauba wax for waxing. Have any one used any of these products or should I consider other brand and products enlighten me guys

Currently i am using Formula1 car wash & wax AND Formula 1 CARNAUBA carwax.
I am using these for both my XUV and R15.
Now i am looking something for TAR cleansing which wont affect the paint and polish for plastic parts.

Try Meguiars tar remover named Gold class which works pretty well
