London, June 25 (IANS) Pippa Middleton, sister of Kate, will get an armoured car with bullet-proof windows as a gift from her parents who are worried about her safety.

The Middletons fear that ever since the royal wedding of her sister Kate with Prince William, when 27-year-old Pippa's rear grabbed worldwide attention, she has become vulnerable to attack from obsessed fans, The Sun reported.

Pippa's parents - Michael, 61, and Carole, 55 - are now looking at a 95,000-pound bomb-proof BMW or Audi.

The car would still be driveable even if the tyres were shot.

"Carole and Michael have taken a raft of measures following advice from one of William's most trusted bodyguards. Pippa's car will have all the latest security devices, including armour plating. It will be bomb proof," a source said.

Pippa Middleton caused a sensation on internet as the bridesmaid at her sister's wedding. A Facebook group in praise of her rear has more than 230,000 followers.
