The vehicle recording of mileage isn't the issue. Odometers have been around for a very long time. ( Though I see the technical interest in new modules and systems now recording such stuff)
When mileage is taxed the issue is how to securely accurately and easily transfer that data and the practicality of then converting and charging to the drivers of millions of cars. The system needs to be s...

All good, it was just a thought, but yeah you're spot on with the needle rollers in a ribcage, I've just had an MGB box apart and it was bushed and fresh in my mind. Sorry for any confusion there.-----

Here’s a scan from my Skoda, showing mileage in various modules.

A lot of modern cars store the mileage in each of the electronic modules. I recall my Rover 75 (not that modern) even stored the mileage in the headlamp switch module.
