    :cornut: We are(well I am any way)an eccentric group that accepts the MINI defects with loving gentle frustration. It's just part of the MINI scene. But you are welcome to complain and a lot of us do although most of us just accept the defects like a knowing parent of an obstinate child.:Thumbsup:

    Welcome, thanks for joining M/A

    The speedo issue is not an issue, what you are seeing is normal.

    The mileage isn't determined by the speedo. There is no mechanical linkage. Don't worry about your car "artificially" aging. ;)

    That being said: Welcome to MA. Hang out have a good time. Watch out for the occasional dougnut flying by. :D
