The real-life Cheetah from GTA 6 is being sold for $1.34M by Rockstar at Selfridges in London. In 2013, Rockstar gave away the real-life Banshee from GTA 5, but the winner eventually sold it for $45K on eBay to pay for her son’s tuition.

🇬🇧 Mini ERA Turbo 1 of 435 115 mph 0-60 - 7.8 seconds 94 BHP 4 speed manual 737 kg The ERA Mini Turbo (1989–1991) is widely regarded as the ultimate factory-backed performance iteration of the classic Mini. Designed and built by Engineering Research & Application Ltd. (ERA) in Dunstable, England, it was sold directly through official Rover dealerships as a modern, spiritual successor to the Mini Cooper S and 1275 GT. Only 436 units were produced, making it one of the rarest and most collectible classic Minis ever built. Powertrain: Under the bonnet sits the turbocharged 1.275 L engine borrowed from the MG Metro Turbo, paired with an upgraded cooling system and intercooler packaging adapted for the tight Mini engine bay.  Bullet Chassis & Suspension: ERA modified the suspension setup significantly, equipping the car with lower ride height, adjustable shock absorbers, and modified subframes to tame torque steer and manage the power output.  Bullet Braking: Features 4-pot calipers with ventilated discs from the Austin Metro at the front and modified rear drums.  Bullet Exterior Design: Styled by Dennis Adams, the car is instantly recognizable by its deep front air dam, aggressive fiberglass side skirts, wide wheel arches, 13-inch alloy wheels, and custom rear spoiler. Bullet Interior: Designed to offer luxury alongside performance, the cabin features hand-stitched Connolly leather upholstery, Wilton carpeting, full analogue instrumentation (including a boost gauge), and a sports steering wheel. A very rare sight in the UK 👏🏻 📷 Paul Hutchinson 👏🏻👏🏻 #cars #carspotting #mini #uk

When Marcia Wallace died in 2013, The Simpsons retired her character, Edna Krabappel. In the next new episode, Bart went to the chalkboard and wrote one line: “We’ll really miss you, Mrs. K.” Wallace was 70 and had voiced Bart’s teacher since the show’s first season. The episode ended with a second tribute, this time to Wallace herself. Months later, the show gave Edna a goodbye of her own. Ned Flanders pictured himself dancing with her, then said quietly, “I sure do miss that laugh.”

You see a lot on Burford high street (Range Rover SVs, mainly) but a first-gen Vectra makes a nice change.

This should go without saying. But if you AI Generate a Nostalgic Picture of SpongeBob playing on a TV... Then you are actually a genuine loser. It's actually simple, go to flickr and search "SpongeBob on TV" and you will easily find tons of actual pictures of SpongeBob on TV.
