Nope. It's a Dog-leg pattern gearbox. First is left and down, reverse is left and up. It's that way so that the common used gears (i.e. 2-5) are in an H-pattern.

You got it. If you ever drive one just make sure you pay extra attention or, much like James May you'll be running into everything/one behind you.
