sl500 speedo problem

I own a 95 sl500. The speedo reads much faster than the car is going, about 50 to 60 mph. It has stock wheels and tires and I believe it's all stock. I have NO idea where to start with this. Any advice.

Thanks Nick!!

Cable or electronic? If it was this way when you bought the car I'd say someone just put the needle back on in the wrong place. Or it could be a swapped speedo in which case it could be recalibrated by a speedo shop.

Thanks for the info. It's electronic. It sure looks like a big job to move that needle but I have consulted with a sppedo shop .
Thanks again
Nick
