this is from http://www.viamichelin.com as a rough guide as you haven't provided any information you will also have to factor in the cost of the ferry from the UK to France , Italy to Sicily and Sicily to Malta , hotel costs etc

its not going to be cheap thats for sure

Dean,

Look Forward to seeing you in Birze, and With your Navara, I have one also and the registration tax is very good if you class as a commercial.

Rob has given you a great breakdown there. Look at the pricing for different Ferries also. From Genoa or other destinations it may work out cheaper in the Diesel and road charges by booking a ferry for higher in Italy to Palermo and then from Pozzallo to Valletta
