Top Speed's Crap Cars

One of the writers from Britain's "Top Speed" program has written a book called "Crap Cars". I'm sure you can guess to subject of this book. However, in the friendly spirit of ribbing our friends, I'd like you all to guess which vehicle by which manufacturer was voted the #1 Crap Car of all time.

I'll give you a hint, it's not the Yugo, that was at number 2.

I must mention that the Camaro (Berlinetta) was on the list (I can't remember which year, but it was second generation), but it was up at #26 or so.
