OBC - display km/h

Hi folks,

I just wondered if its possible to change the measurement of the speed readout of the OBC from mph to kph?

This would be really handy on trips abroad!

I'm not at home right now but I definately know that you can do it because I was looking into the same thing when I was thinking about driving abroad. Have a look in your MINI handbook and it says in there. Let me know how you get on and i'll hunt around when I get home.

You can do it, but (I think) it requires the dealer to access the computer to change it.
I have my OBC displaying mpg instead of the l/100km

Jon do you have a safety camera device?

As on my origin B2 I have an option to use this as a speedo, and I can select to have in MPH or KPH, thats how I keep track when driving in a foreign land

I was hoping for a "real" answer as it would be handy here in Germany with my US Spec MINI.

So, if anyone knows, please post away.
