A 1999 metallic gray Volkswagen Golf believed to once belong to the pope went up for sale on eBay, but the auction ended Saturday without a winner.
For the second time in two years, eBay hosted an auction for a car said to be Pope Benedict XVI’s old hatchback. Though bids surpassed $204,000, a reserve price wasn’t met.
The car’s owner, a Texas-based online casino, GoldenPalace.com, bought the car in 2005 on eBay from a German man. The casino had posted two German automobile registration documents that list “Josef Kardinal Ratzinger” as the vehicle’s previous owner.
