So just how inaccurate is the polo speedo??

[Coaster]

The wifes Honda Jazz (with good tyres and pressure) went past 3 speed checks at 90k/h on the speedo, every time it read 83k/h on the speed check. Which is 8%. The Aus Design Rule is 10% maximum variation. I assume that means it shouldn't be 10% over!

don't you hate it when next month, new road rules and you get caught by some stupid cops doing 1kph over the limit

If I have the cruise control set on about 122km/h my GPS is reading 110km/h exactly ... find this a fair bit out, especially when I'm running standard wheels/tyres. The wife has a new Pug 207 and her speedo is 115km/h when the GPS reads 110km/h.

Quite a decent error in the Polo, although at least it reads over what it really is !! Would hate it to read the other way !!
