'A bad car'

Original Toronto Star caption: 'A bad car': Iraqi Ambassador Abdo Al-Dairi has described 12;500 GM Canada Malibus as bad cars because they have no clocks; faulty clutches and no class. Last Friday; Iraq cancelled its $100-million deal to buy the cars; some of which are still sitting on this lot in Oshawa. GM had earlier sent 30;000 Oshawa-built Malibus to the Iraq government for use as gifts to families of Iraqi war dead.
