Use a GPS to check it is correct before going back.....
What type for Speedo / Pickup you using .. mechanical / Electrical.
Magnets? Worm Gear? Digital? aftermarket or original Vehicle. Gauge is it New / Old etc?
Scot's do it better in Kilts.

Well thats not too bad. You now have a list of jobs to do. You should be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Well done so far.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards

If its cable driven then you probably need a speedo driven gear (the removable one in the gearbox that the cable pushes into) with 2 teeth less than
the one that is in there.
Or send the speedo unit to a specialist and get them to re-calibrate it.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Can't believe how quickly you offered the tester a mint.
