He should have put a whoopie cushion under his seat.

No, forwards is fine, providing you choose the right track. I was thinking "Number of the beast"

Shouldn't the Pope have the Star Wars Imperial March as his theme?

The pope-mobile always reminds me of a Talbot Rancho, with a nicer interior.

I'd love to see it break down and get towed. Pope on a rope. :D

The Pope is omnipotent, he would know if anybody had tampered with the Godmobile. :lol:

I find it sad, that we need such security measures in the first place. :(

The Pope's visit comes to London.
On the way from the airport in the Maybach, the Pope asks the driver he if he can it for a spin as he quite enjoys driving.
After swapping the seats on the hard shoulder, the Pope sets off up the M4. Before long, the Maybach's barrelling along at over 120mph.
Of course, the Police take note and dispatch motorbikes to intercept the speeding vehicle.
Eventually, the Pope slows and stops, and the Police rider taps on the window to speak with the driver.
After seeing who it is, he gets onto the radio back to the station.
'I think I've stopped someone very important' he relays back to the dispatch officer.
'Who is it?' comes the reply.
'I don't know, but the Pope's his chauffeur.'

I was watching some of the footage of the demonstrations this morning and one of the protesters is holding up a placard that said 'Down with this sort of thing!' :lol:
