Mines the same since having the diff bushes changed .. Its reads 80 when I`1m only doing 60mph on the TomTom.

.The gap is correct so what else could it be ?

Almost all cars over-read on the speedometer.

If you were to put bigger wheels on, this covers the potential inaccuracy of the speedometer. It's better for it to read slightly higher than lower than the speed your going.
