Description
A celebration of 70 of the worst car clunkers and forgotten models of the 20th century. This book has an expertly humorous commentary and is illustrated with photographs and advertising ephemera. The fact-filled profiles examine the wayward stories of each car in a ‘Who’s Who’ of motoring ignominy. From the 1950s AC Petite to the Zagato Zele from 1970s Italy, an A-Z of the runners up from motoring history. Includes ‘Plus’ and ‘Minus’ points for each engineering wonder and unofficial league tables, including the ugliest, slowest and daftest cars. This entertaining guide is guaranteed to rev up memories of first cars, old-faithful, family motors and so-bad-they’re-good driving stories.
