The Germans on the committee wanted the new car to be called the "Global Krupp", to emphasize integrity of engineering and tradition, the French preferred the hip and modern "Rapper", and the Italians "Caprice". They settled on the "Crappee", which was well received on the continent... unfortunately 80% of the car's sales were projected to be in the UK, where the name reminded them of shit.
