Your speedo is technically within tollerance, as, by law, speedos are never allowed to under-read, but can over-read by upto 10% - though Audi speedos are generally quite accurate.

For example, at a genuine 60mph, the vehicle speedo can actually (legally) display anything between 60mph to 66 mph.

I think the OP may have something confused with either his maths, or got his words the wrong way round!
