The "Mongoose Civique" and other terrible cars

Car lovers...and haters...cannot afford to miss Peter Cheney's excellent piece in the Globe and Mail: The 12 worst cars ever built.

Nine of the dirty dozen [I could see that coming. ed.] are illustrated in full colour, the remainder in shocking black-and-white.

At low points in my life, I have been reduced to driving two of these horrors, all the while wearing a balaclava so no-one would recognize me. They are now only bad memories. Thanks to Mr. Cheney for reminding me!

Footnote: The Mongoose Civique? Don't just look at the pix; read the copy to find out which one was almost so named.
