Lady Penelope's pink 'Rolls Royce' from 'Thunderbirds'

The Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward's pink six-wheel “Rolls-Royce” in the British TV series Thunderbirds.

The original car was just a miniature that was only big enough for puppets, but eventually this full-sized car was built.

Apparently, Rolls Royce was not happy about any of this, as it was built on a Bedford Duple Vega coach chassis, and merely borrowed the famous grille design. They planned on buying it, so that they could destroy it, but somehow it survived. It went on to be used in the movie Thunderbirds Are Go.

abandoned Soviet hydrofoil

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union was a leader in hydrofoil technology, with nearly 3,000 vessels built for Russian and Ukrainian waterways. Using hydrofoil wings to lift the hull out of the water and decrease drag, these streamlined passenger boats were capable of reaching speeds of up to 150 km/h (90 mph), impressive for the time.
