Proton is from Malaysia. It is the group that owns Lotus now, but the Proton cars are not well known here in Europe. In Belgium they tried to sell them in the 90s, but it did not work very well, and they are quite rare here I think.
There was the Proton Wira (one of those that was sold here) that I know because it was featured in the game "Network Q RAC Rally", and the Proton Satria in "DTM/Toca Race Driver" :D
The one on the picture above is a much older model than those that I saw here, I guess that in UK these cars sold better; like another Malaysian car, the Perodua Kelisa.

Proton Iswara is the restyled Proton Saga, called Proton MPi in UK.

(by the way, that article says "United Kingdom contributes most of Proton's export production.", that matches what I said above: these Malaysian cars seem more common in UK than elsewhere)

They tried to sell proton in Ireland as well to not much success. I think they sell in the UK but I do not know. They are rare in Ireland

Proton Saga is based on Mitsubishi Lancer Fiore ...
Iswara is actually a facelift version of saga ...

Are you sure? As far as I know, they never sold Proton's here in Ireland officially. The few I've seen here were UK imports.
