Odometer round the clock

This might sound daft, but I've yet to see a Defender top 100k miles, but I'm fully expecting to shortly.

So what happens to the digital display on the odometer?

Does it reset to 00000.0 or does the decimal point move and it turns over to 100000 (losing the Decimal place)?

This might explain the odd 15k miles 2002 defender I've been seeing about the ad pages lately.

Cheers all.

It means the comment is aimed 'at' the person listed.

It's a migration of usage from the old IRC servers, where it was common back in t'day.
