AFAIK, it's being used a lot by public services. I've seen lots of trucks that either have RHD for RHT (or vice versa) or two steering wheels. It's obviously safer for their workers that stop frequently to get out on the right side, than getting out on the left side, while traffic passes them.
Other than that (and buying a classic car) I don't think that there is any reason to buy a car with the steering wheel in the "wrong place".
