Popemobile - Bobbin Threadbare

Check it out; a 'green' Popemobile: www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/the-pope/8589394...l

Surely it ought to be powered on blind faith, not Li-ion batteries...?

Popemobile - unthrottled

Speed (operational): 6mph

Hmm...

A bone stock Honda Jazz would seem to fit the bill

Popemobile - Avant

Next Pope to be Japanese? Or even more unlikely - from Swindon?

If the caption hadn't said Mercedes I'd never have guessed from the side view: I'd have guessed a Fiat - although that would need a lot of prayers to keep it from breaking down at a constant 6 mph.

Popemobile - Bobbin Threadbare

ROFL

He'd have to get the local body mechs to pimp it out fully white.

He can go around the Vatican about 16 times in it on that battery unless he plugs his iPod in as well...
