That's not too hard roughly one and a half the miles to get km ad add an 
extra tenth if you want to get closer.
That's useful for distances but for speed, one learns fast because there are 
few different values
luckily hours are as long in UK and continent :-)
What is more tricky is converting hPa in PSI when you want to check tyres 
pressure.
