Alright folks,i seem to have a speedo problem.

best guess is that when the uk (mph) speedo was put on, the needle wasnt repositioned absolutely correctly or something like that.

if it is a consistent 10mph optomistic the whole time you could easily remove the speedo cowling and pull the speedo needle off and reposition it.

if it is overreading by a standard percentage (ie my old ka used to always be almost exactly 10% over) it may be more difficult.

How would i go about that then? shirley if the needles on nought how do you reposition it?
thanks for everyones help.
