Title: Carboard Cutout of Ayatollah Khomeini riding in K5
Post by: bladerunner on February 02, 2012, 03:32:25 pm
So there was ceremony held in Iran on Wednesday reenacting Ayatollah Khomeini's historic return from exile in 1979.  The ceremony used a cardboard cutout of the Ayatollah.

Anyway, I thought it interesting that the cutout rode off in a pretty nice looking K5:

Maybe a K5 was used during the actual event hence the use here?
