Its a google street view car: http://www.pcgameshardware.de/aid,651415/News/Google_digitalisiert_deutsche_Metropolen/&menu=browser&image_id=854816&article_id=651415&page=1&show=original http://www.pcgameshardware.de/aid,651415/News/Google_digitalisiert_deutsche_Metropolen/&menu=browser&image_id=854817&article_id=651415&page=1&show=original
The license plate definitely looks Dutch, but since it's green it has to be a dealer plate, which can only be used for dealer purposes which doesn't include making Google earth pictures. Maybe it just came back from the conversion shop or something.
In Malta they drive in the shade - whatever side of the road that is .... I've been there, one place to grab a cab rather than a rental
Google StreetView alright. I saw 24 of them lined up in the parking lot of the Holiday Inn in Brampton (suburban Toronto) last Thursday. I managed to get some photos; when I tried to get a shot inside a car with an open door I was told "you can't photograph the inside". I don't think the Googler got the irony. BTW - the 24 cars were about to fan across Canada. Robert - if by chance you would like the photos, I would be glad to e-mail them to you.
