[QUOTE="torch, post: 1447429, member: 1295"] Probably a combination of deliberate over-statement and manufacturing tolerance. Mine seems to be +3 at 50 kph, +4 at 100 kph and +5 at 160 kph, so not a pure percentage. As far as I can tell, anyway, given the challenges of perfectly holding a speed with the needle centered on the number long enough to settle out the GPS lag. I'm tempted to remove the dash and relocate the needle. Oddly, while there are aftermarket speedometer faces available in either Kph or mph for both the Gen I and Gen II analogue clocks, I've never seen one showing both Kph and mph like the US face. I know Canada is a pretty small market, but surely the demand must also exist in the UK vs Europe arena? [/QUOTE]
