So no one knows a Finn-made vehicle which was connected to a German people's car? This is not it, but you'll find it more quickly...

And how about that man in Malta who was a racer, but nowadays he's looking more into the past...?

(huge clues methinks)

C'mon, there's only one left :)!

It is from Finnland. The brand made similar type of vehicles based on a German people's car and this was the prototype for its replacement, based on a Swedish car. You can find it if you research in Finnish a bit :)

That's all very well for you Hungarians!
For some of us it's a case of two impenetrable languages which may possibly be related! ;D

Finnish and Hungarian are very distantly related...

The name of the last car (not the brand name, but the model name) is a popular female name, which was also given to a French luxury-sportscar which was originally designed in UK and after years of development was presented in 1972.
This female name was used with a "c" for the French car, but it is used with a "k" for this car.

And with that we go down into the Black Hole.

That should be Monika, then!

Sure, the name of this pickup is Monika. But which company made it? And when? And where?

Yes, we have established long time ago, that this car is from Finnland. But where (which city?) it was made? A clue: note Helsinki

I don't think it got anything to do with WIIMA

And it's not Helsinki - sorry I was in a hurry

Yes, the last one is the Teijo Monika, based on a Saab. Planned replacement for the VW-based version, but it never got beyond the prototype stage.
