Origin of name

Paint colour Sparkling Graphite, influenced by Steffi Graf, German former tennis player, who was ranked world number one during her career.

Departure

An ignoble end, really. It broke, was hail damaged, and therefore not worth fixing.

Basically it started snorting oil via its intake manifold (clogged PCV), and exhaling this as a huge non-environmentally friendly cloud of smoke, which was fixed. Too easy. Then new plugs, because almost worn to nothing. Then it broke some more, developing huge vaccum. This broke other things.

This broke my patience, and I scrapped it.
