My speedo is still reading 10 mph over my actual speed, and I don't believe all this speedos are ment to over read rubbish. Any advice would be appreciated, because it's doing my head in.

your car is at least 16 years old.................
why do you expect it to be any more accurate..
it was made in a shed in spain for the cheapest quotes.
no gear driven speedo is that accurate, simply due to diffs & tyre wear. you could invest in a ground radar telemetry system, but it would cost more than the car, or you could try a different speedo & test it with a gps satnav thing

speed reading can vary for the big rims you may have on.

Do what every nova driver when this this happens....just drive 10MPH fasterlol

the majority of cars are around 6mph out from the factory, so your only missing 4mph
