Run your hand under the spare wheel well. If it is bumpy it has sound deadening and is not an RA.
If it is smooth, no sound deadening, probably an RA.

In theory a true RA should only be able to be B-reg here.

Get the VIN from the VIN plate and check it against the VIN stamped on the firewall, it should reveal what it actually is.
