Been to Malta a few times. Being as tiny and exposed as it is, and an island surrounded by salt water, any car manufacturing would have a large problem with the acidic salty air.

I have pics of the local police cars (daewoo's) and one had a rust hole in the door skin that you could fit half a hand through.

Good for some delicious food and ladies that were pleasing to the eye :

I think Kia Chaser and Dave289 are behind moves to have Tasmania opt out of the Australian Federation and join the EEC. Is that sedition?

I still think, given Tassies diminutive size, the Tornado - John Goss Special qualifies them as a manufacturer of at least one car.
