While Holmes is in Switzerland, disguised as a book collector, he drives in a car with the steering wheel located on the right side while driving on the left side of the road. In Switzerland (and in Germany, as well, so "the Nazi's own car" would also be configured the same way), people drive cars on the right side with steering wheels mounted on the left side. The only areas of Europe where cars are right-hand-drive and occupy the left-hand lane are the British Isles and Gibraltar. A probable explanation for this apparent discrepancy is the film's overall British overtone --- the tale's primary setting is London and many of the lead actors are from England, so this is likely why British-configured cars were used.
