    "around feb/march 1973 they were both kph and kph with to odometer being in miles"

    This answers alot :P Now I know my odometer isn't broken.

    When I got my HQ it had the 220 kph speedo in it, I later put the 200 Kph in it, both are in Kph and Mph. Never knew there where more options than these two.

    Features manual quite clearly says "140MPH (225kM/h) speedo" is a feature change for HQ Sandman. This is on top of U21. I simply assumed it'd be a metric equivalent of the 140MPH speedo.

    So the 220kmh speedo is specified as an extra on top of the U21 guages? If you ordered a U21 on a Kingswood/Statesman etc did you get the speedo?

    Thanks for answering mate.

    I just took this photo of the speedo out of my 6/74 HQ GTS/4. As you can see it has both KPH/MPH, I haven't seen a KPH only one either.

    Good luck on your mission Mauser
