Over here after a car reaches a certain age you can do this legally. When you sell the car there's a box on the title transfer papers that says that the odometer reading isn't correct, you just have to check that so the buyer doesn't think he's getting a car with that few true miles on it. I think the age is either 20 or 25 years old.

Over here its not illigal to change the milage on the clock , but it is illigal to wind back the milage on a car you are selling to make the milage seem less , but all you have to say is that the milage is not warranted and you are in the clear .
I know people that zero the milage after a rebuild when they have fitted a recon engine & box.

It's fine as long as you don't do it to cheat (like mentioned above).

E.g. if you got a new speedo for your car, and its used, and has the wrong mileage, nothing wrong with winding that!
