We brought ours over from France and its an IGO ( purchased from ebay for 60 Euros), european map includes Malta. However, Malta is a small island and we found that a good map is much better than a sat nav. If you get lost ask, we have found that the locals will go out of there way to show you where you need to be.

Don't bother with sat nav.. Malt's only small and as Tearnet above says you're better off with a local map. We were lost years ago and stopped to ask the way.. the guy jumped in and took us to Cirkewwa ( we were in Mosta when we asked him) LOL, about 30 mins away.

I have a tomtom sat nav. I already had Europe on it, but for some some reason Malta was on a different version of Europe and I had to purchase it again (around 40 euros). It is totally out of date/wrong. It always take me down dead end streets and tells me to turn on to non existent roads! It did help me a bit initially but it made me pretty crazy too!
