mrbeige 0 Posted January 29, 2008 It is possible, but a total ballache. The early Rado's had cable driven speedo, whereas the later ones (9A 16v, 8v and VR6) have an elctronic speedo driven via sensor on the gearbox. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reggit 0 Posted January 30, 2008 As an emergency fix for the MOT, can you put a 'road angel' or something similar on the dash so you've got a valid speed readout? Is the speedo even checked for MOT? I can't see it in the MOT list. (On thread a few below this) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
