Are you folks talking about odometer or speedo? The odometer can be in km or miles... but the speedo must have markings for mph (and actually state somewhere on the dial: 'mph').

If your speedo reads in km the car couldn't pass an sva test

Depends how old it is. If it's over 10 years old then it wont need an SVA test.
