Still, there really aren't any bad seats on the 190 and the 170 is fairly comfortable too.
It's G-LCYV that has the layout reversed with the big legroom on the AB side. I've had it 3 times in the last month. The first 2 occasions the CE seat map in MMB was the "normal" one right up to OLCI and you couldn't tell it would be this aircraft until boarding, on the last trip it showed the correct seat map for G-LCYV in MMB prior to and for OLCI.
