The reading on my milometer. Achieved yesterday and like it for a few miles since....
It seems the TVR gremlins have climbed onboard and goosed the innards!
Common problem by all accounts. Anyone else similarly afficted?

I use mine as a fuel gauge as well. 200 miles = find a petrol station. More accurate than the gauge which seems to plummet after 1/2 tank has gone.

Aye to that. Done same with all my cars, for years.

Hi Peter, I have spare speedo if you want borrow one whilst the repair place has your one and doesnt live up to its name?

Hi Graham, thanks for the offer. Dan's going to do the same with a spare but I appreciate the offer. How's the Porker going?

On balance I reckon driving backwards, shaking it, turning it upside down, shouting at it, etc. can only ever be a temporary fix - if at all.

So it's out, on its way to be fixed, with a temporary clock in place to stay legal, courtesy of my specialist. Hurrah!

FYI, 20 mins complete job, including dash lid off and back on again. Piece of cake. But not by me...
