Tvr suffer from speedo issues but I’ve rarely heard of tachometer problems!
Remember the early cars have different gearboxes and diff so gearing might be slightly different to what others record.

There is a receipt in the file for the speedo being repaired as for the tacho just watch a few driving videos on You tube and watch the tachos bouncing about like demented wabbit! Only car have ever seen this happen on.

Below about 27 mph the speedo needle on the MGF wavers about a little then steadies up after that and is fine. Mine being a Mk1 has a cable driven speedo with analogue odometer. later ones are electronic.

Yes mine has the LT77 box and I believe the earlier GKN diff.
