UK F50 Miles or Kilos on the odo?

Long shot here, but is it the same as the speeometer? (though I admit, I don't know what the UK speedo displays)

I thought you had your F50 wrapped up Dan? Either way, good luck!

 

doesnt the F50 have a digital readout/display that could show both MPH and KMhr? and you could alternate between the two

 

Kilometers.

 

No. It only shows kilometers and you can not alternate.

There is a F50 in the UK with a miles speedo/odometer but it is not an original UK car and the display was reprogrammed or replaced.

 

My dad had car # 32 yellow, a while ago, he bought it on english plates, but for spain and speedo was in mph, there was a fault with the clocks ( cant remember the exact fault ), but ferrari Barcelona made arrangements for a factory unit in Modena ( not ferrari, but the company that made the clocks for them) to fix them and convert them in kilometres, they were valued at about £ 15k at the time, and no-one would insure them for mailing, so he had to send somebody who works for him there and wait a day for them to fix them.

He later sold the car to someone in the states, and they had it converted back to MPH, so they can be converted if this helps.

 

I cant say ive had the pleasure of owning an F50, but i thought it was able to change from miles to kms. below are 2 photos one in kms one in mph but you can see the feint outline of kph on the one set on mph and the extra numbers after 220. and on the one in kph, you can see the mph mode above the km/h symbol.

To clarify my original reply, I have one of the original UK F50s (there were 25) and the ODO was delivered set to kilometers.

The ODO can be changes to miles and I have seen one (a German F50 imported into the UK) on which it was done.

 

I've seen a UK F50 with the capability of switching.
