Has anyone in europe got a right hand drive steptronic. OR LHD?

If so can you help me with a registration problem in france

My english V5 says Type RD
varient *BG
version 02J

The french say it must read 020 not 02J
J shows it is a RHD steptronic

I suspect they are looking for one which is left hand drive not RHD
can anyone tell me what is on thier registration papers.
many thanks
David

According to the MG-R Repair Manual, the Steering/Gearbox Identificaion Codes are :
RHD M - B
LHD M - M
RHD CVT - J
LHD CVT - X

Thanks
Yes I have seen that as well, so have no idea where the french get o from?
My only idea is that early mgf models have 02 02 as the varient and version. So are they getting confused with the second part?

A thought is that the O is due to there not being a CVT on early MGFs (from MY 2000 only) so the Database has not been updated.
As you said on an earlier Post, The Certificate of Compliance is expensive however it is the Defining Document.
