1. So very, very true!
You'd think God would at least protect his one representative on earth, wouldn't you?

2. Painted in Vaticanmystic White!

This open official car, which the Head of the Catholic Church requested for use during fine weather, was developed by Mercedes-Benz on the basis of the G 500. It is equipped with a folding windscreen and hand-rails, and like its predecessors it is painted in the Vaticanmystic white finish.

The interior is likewise white, and is accessed via steps lined in red at the rear. The Pope holds his audiences in a standing position, so that he is easily visible to all his flock.

Spotted while Googling this: Hitler's Pope, Pius XII, favored custom-built Cadillacs. One of his fleet had an adjustable throne.
