No wait I'm wrong, been working it out in a stupid way.

So yeah from what I've just searched 200-210 is 10:1 (using lower comp pistons) so either the gauge is out or my method was no good or the rings haven't sealed well..

Er excuse me , I atmosphere is approx 15 psi or 1 bar , so 10-1 is surely 150psi or 15 bar give or take , 220 would equate to 22-1 or is it an oil burner or is doctor who waving her sonic screwdriver to magic up extra compression !

my engine is most likely crap considering the oil it burns , often thinks it is a deisal .

Yes, 10-1 so that is 10 atmospheres each being 15 psi !
