He means that yours actually has EG in the vin tag, so it's a real EG, not an EH like ours

Yes, but EG3's look almost identical to USDM EH/EG hatchs, just RHD. They have USDM looking interior and USDM rear seats, not like the EG6 folding down rear seats, + Clear glass.

my eg is a jap import(el-x) rather then the european model(dx).

it was a good buy seen as it only cos me 600 euro(which is very cheap over here) say 350 dollars(there about)for a fully working car.no rust.no crashed chassis.no bad dents(there is a small rub on the passo side but it no big deal)

cheers again guys
