The only one i know that will display 100k miles, is some of the MK3 Fiesta Speedo's, some had the extra Digit, and some didn't.

I watched the S2 do the 100k mark when my mate had it. It's now on 167k but had a full rebuild 12k ago.
The S1 is also over the 100k mark: currently around 128, but again has had a full rebuild not long ago.
I also think the trip counters should be 4 figures: then it's quicker and easier to work out it's next servicing schedule.
