Not original Cooper, they went to 100.
My bet is aftermarket, sold by Minispares, etc.
Is similar markings layout to my 200KMH/130MPH one bought from there.

I thought it may have been aftermarket.
I had a Cooper speedo in the early 90's but left it at Rockhampton mini
parts when I left Qld. It had a totally different face.
Thanks Rob

That is a UK made smiths speedo This type was fitted to UK Minis just before the Clubman style instuments were fitted to the Mini
And I am fairly sure fitted to the UK Poverty packs, when the Clubman type instruments
Became standard
