"Speedwell" as there are 3 gauges that say "Speedwell" on it, the pod is a Vortz (or a replica of one).
Where the Broadspeed part is i couldn't say...

I think it is made up from parts of various Smiths speedos. The centre with the trip recorder could be taken from the Series11 or Series111 Morris Oxford or Isis perhaps? I had one fitted in a Morris Minor at one time.

The cheaper one was probably picked up in the sales having ended yesterday! ;) It really shows what effect christmas has on our poor wallets :lol:

Nice item though, but another one that is unfortunately too pricey for my liking...

to be fair to the seller, that is the version with the natty little alloy breather take off, so the price is not so bad
