In the first three years of operation of the Massachusetts lemon law, (to
invoke which requires not only a bad vehicle but also a lousy dealer), the
Yugo was in the top five.  Two of the others were Alfa Romeo and
Sterling.  That is notable in that a) the rate of return on Alfas was one
for every 42 sold !!!! and b) that as fond as I am of many things British,
it really takes talent to screw up an Acura (Legend, I think?) which is
what a Sterling really was, with British coachwork.
