Hello folks,
I feel ashamed as I have no problems with circumferences of tyres,
speedo models or any such things!  My speedo AND tach played up and
replacements were expensive so in a moment-of-pique I installed Speedhut
gauges. Not original but then my MGB is definitely not original by any
means.  But wonders of wonders - the speedo works off GPS and not even
connected to the car ! Total accuracy all the time no matter what
tyres. One of the few modern technologies that actually are a help. I
am still smarting from the installation of a new "modern" Pioneer radio.
