That interior is great, quite worn in places. Shame that it's wearing M-Sport front and rear bumpers .. few battle scars maybe?

It looks like it’s in great condition for a car in Malta! Parking is at a premium and the roads are pretty hectic. Anything bigger than a supermini is an absolute pain to park / use. I have wonder how long this car has been in Malta for? Does anyone know the history of this one, I’m assuming it was a UK car originally?

Apparently, #060 was originally a UK-spec car but it doesn't appear to've ever been registered here. The presumption is therefore that it's probably been in Malta since new or thereabouts.

Great interior. Maybe it's true about parking in Malta. She seems to have missed an original front and rear bumper replaced with M sport ones! Also no rear spoiler....

Having driven and tried to park in various parts of Malta I am amazed how few battle scars this B3S has.

Every time I returned to my hire car another chunk had been taken out :?, the doors looked like they had been attacked by the mad axeman :(
