Just noticed that when cranking the motor that the speedo bounces up to 100klms until it starts.Running ok does this suggest a problem with the electrics?

This pretty common when there's a large voltage drop.

Assuming the battery is known good and tested...is it?..... this could very easily come down to nothing more than dirty/loose connections

I'd begin by cleaning the battery cable ends at the battery, cleaning the two "+" voltage junction posts on the firewall , and cleaning the main ground under the car, RH side, about where the engine and transmission come together.

Post back if no joy.

Thanks Doug, reasonably ew battery appears fully charged. I look at the posts and connections tomorrow. Just thought it was strange behaviour.
