Okay..... So I've nothin' better to put on here; at the moment, but....

Checking my daily milage as I do before I reset my trip it actually showed 66.6 miles Odd or what? Friday the 13th an' all!

It's never shown that before... That I've seen!

Question

Imagine my amazement when mine went BACKWARDS!!! is it anything to do with the earths magnetic field??

It never happened on the 'old' mechanical speedo's, unless they were in the hands of a used car salesman, of course!!

Scotty,

a few years ago i remember looking at the odometer, which just clicked to 6,666 miles, as i approached J6 on the M42 and it was the 6th of the month.

I drove with a sense of caution until i hit 6,667 - even though i am not in the slightest bit superstitious!!!
