What could the LA do if the speedometer cable was to "fall" out of the back of the clock for a few months every year and then "fall" back in for testing ? (your satnav could tell you your speed and if you knew what your average weekly mileage was you could keep up with your servicing ) speaking hypothetically of course !

does that work with todays electronic-fly-by-wire ECU crap? is the mileage held in the ECU?

Yes it is all they have to do is plug in the computer and access the ecu and they will then be given the correct mileage, I know it can be accessed on a Skoda so it must apply to all modern vehicles

Why dont you challenge the councils policy, stating that they are the only ones who do this

I don't know of any L.A that asks for an on board diagnostic (O.B.D) report as part of an M.O.T or compliance test (this would show up any discrepancies between clock reading and the recorded ECU mileage.
