Duncan: U.K. odometers are identical to American ones -- main odometer showing whole miles, trip odometer showing miles and tenths of miles.
There may very well be some odometers calibrated according to your understanding, but I've yet to see one on any of the cars I've rented there in the past few years.

That being the case, do I understand that odometers in U.K. vehicles have large dials for miles and smaller ones for yards? If so, reason suggests that would be inferior to odometers reading kilometres and tenths of kilometres. Have I missed something?
