speedo readings at sva
Please can someone just confirm what manual states about speedo check -is there a 10% for reading faster than actual -I believe my 195/50/15s will do
this for me so if setting up speedo I would have to be spot on.

I have a 2001 manual
in that it says it can NEVER read under, but can be over by a significant amount
examples
real - speedo
40 30
50 39
70 57
these are max deviations

BTW those figures are the wrong way round Steve... If your doing actually doing 30 then the speedo should be saying 36 etc.
I was sure it was 10% + 3mph.

The 10% + 3mph is what speed you can do before the police can prosecute.

quite right! wrong way around.
those figures seem, on a glance, to be random percentages from the base figure - unless its some kinda 'error + 2mph' thing again....
isnt speeding 10% + 2 (not 3??)

From the draft latest manual, I doubt the issued version is different.
