The speedometer reads about 8% high (e.g., speedometer reads 60 mph while gps says I'm really going 55). I guess the odometer uses the same information and is also about 8% exaggerated. I get this degree of error comparing trip odometer read-outs to google map calculations of the same routes.

So while the odometer reads 100,000, I reckon the car has travelled only about 92,000 miles! I'll have to take another photo at 108,000...
