The 1mph was an exaggeration for example. But all cars no mater how shite are fitted with them. No conspiracy theory they are part and parcel of the engine management system. Probably should buy a kit car.I wouldn't put much faith in that claim. Firstly a 1mph difference wouldn't cause them to not pay out as many factors affect the reading on your speedo, tyre wear, wheel size, different gear ratios across various models all fitted with the same dials etc. It's why the police have the 10% allowance when they aim their speed guns at you (in some areas it's 10% + 2).
So there will be a difference between you GPS speed and the speed indicated by your speedo. Also I don't think all cars have these systems fitted at all.
