Someone posted this early /4 speedometer for sale. I haven't seen one with the red field from 50-60 kph before. Actually, I guess I've never seen a kph speedometer, early or otherwise. What were these lines for, and do the early mph speedos have something similar?

914s came here with the speedo in MPH; when Canada switched to metric in the mid-70s and the speedo to kph our cars came with those markings too.
They don't anymore; my late model A6 and Passat don't have those markings - not sure when they stopped on cars coming here but they may still put them on Euro cars m. |
