Default Is this a RHD??

This car is being sold in Australia and I wondered if anyone can see anything that would indicate if its a LHD or RHD as I can't see the steering wheel. Does not look like there is much to give this away but I though someone might see something.

Looks to me like there may be a silhouette of a steering wheel visible on the left side.

... after playing with the midtone of the image, I'm just not sure.

Judgeing from the direction of the window wipers, it should be a left hand drive. To the best of my knowledge, RHD cars have the wipers go the opposite way.

Kary, Thats what I thought, but when I zoom it on photoshop, that silhouette turns out to be the tire of the truck behind it. I've tried emailing the seller but can't get through. I guess I'll try call him
Thanks

I think it is LHD.

I can see the truck wheel outline, but there is also a black outline,
which appears to be the top of the wheel.

Good catch, I think you are probably right by looking at pics of known RHD cars, they are indeed pivoted closest to the right.

I thought it was too cheap to be a RHD in Oz....
