has anyone used a digital or gps speedo. fitting a speedo cable in my car is going to tricky for a couple of reasons. i see smiths do one but they cost over £300.

I don't own one, but I am told that it is legal to use a smart phone while driving, so long as you are not "on the phone", and the GPS will give you a more accurate speed on the open road than the speedo.

Quite a few topics on people using aftermarket Speedos. Acewell springs to mind - it's more of a motorbike thing, but a fair bit can be fitted to cars too. You'll have to choose how to do the speed sensor. Replace the cable or magnets and a pickup.

I’m not sure if it helps in your instance but I bought a 90 degree speedo adapter for my Smiths speedo. It was very cheap from the wreckers - mine came from a Rover 3500.

the 90 degree adaptor might work, i'll have to have a rethink.
