Behold: the Aston Martin Valhalla Coupe – a hypercar developed alongside the (similarly Norse god-themed) Valkyrie.
Powered by a F1-inspired hybrid twin-turbo V6 and designed to compete with Ferrari’s SF90 Stradale and McLaren’s next P1, 500 of these mid-engined track rockets will be produced (with a possible convertible option to follow).

Behold: the 1990 BMW (E30) M3 Convertible – one of the best (and most sought after) driver cars of its day.
Only 700 were made between 1986 and 1992 and this vehicle is one of only twelve, unequipped with catalytic converters, produced for the Spanish market.
With just three owners, a recent refresh and a new canvas top, the car will be offered at auction this September in very decent and near-original condition.

You can keep yer oul’ pyramids because, since 2016, Japanese tea company Ocean Tea Bags has been producing a vast menagerie of teabags shaped like animals: from otters and red pandas to cephalopods.
The company recently started accepting orders from overseas and you can buy the full range of flavours here.

Behold: the Auto Fabrica Type 18 BMW R Nine T – thoroughly modern but heavily influenced by the drop-handled café racers of the 1960s.
Commissioned by BMW Motorrad for the Wheels and Waves festival in Biarritz, the Type 18 is a stripped back version of the already retro styled BMW R Nine T with a series of interchangeable panels including ‘wings’ referencing BMW’s roots as an aircraft manufacturer.

Behold: 1 Colombia Island, off the Manhattan coast in Long Island Sound – a 523 square metre 1940s residence with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, spacious living area and kitchen with polished concrete floors and exposed brick walls throughout.
Virtually self-sustaining, with solar panels and its own desalination plant, the insular property also includes a rooftop deck with views of the skyline of New York City (30 minutes away by boat) and ownership of the nearby 3-acre Pea Island.
Yours for a mere €11,500,000.
