cheers, msh - good to hear from ya - how are things in sunny latvia ? I know you know your stuff, so several points for ya:

1) puglife seems to be a crackin bloke, but his spares are his own & given his avatar I suspect that the A90 speedo he's had apart recently isn't a spare, but that from one of his main cars so I can't presume any parts coming my way, esp since I have no £

2) you reckon that any B3 A80 or A90 speedo will work with the stock A80 sender - probly good news for me buddy, if I can find parts for either; plus news that the A90 speedo will work with no problem in A80 with stock sender, but rev counter will not

3) little plastic gear that gets damaged/stuck in odometer - can this gear not be freed up/fixed ? my history is with old cars, mainly old vw, so am used to having to fix the 'unfixable' and I am happy to have a go at anything rather than just replace. if there's a way I can fix it without having to replace any parts I will be a much happier man - I don't really want to change the whole speedo, just wanna fix it so that the odo function works again - if it's a mechanical part that's broke, surely it's fixable?
