Pope Francis gets a personalized Lamborghini Huracan

Pope Francis has been handed the keys to a brand new papal-themed Lamborghini worth £165,000. But 80-year-old Argentine is unlikely to take the Italian supercar for a spin around the Vatican. Instead, the special edition Huracan will be auctioned off by Sotheby’s, with the proceeds going to charities including one aimed at helping rebuild Christian communities in Iraq that were devastated by ISIS.
