Slovenian Car of the Year 2026: A Circus on Four Wheels, Where Safety Isn't Necessary, and Beauty Is a Matter of Debate

The selection for the Slovenian Car of the Year is a special event every year, a kind of Slovenian Oscar, except that the audience is smaller and the catering is more homely. When I looked at the list of five finalists for 2026 – Audi A5, Dacia Bigster, Hyundai Inster, KIA EV3 and Renault 5 – I asked myself: Is this really the pinnacle of engineering or have we simply become dangerously undemanding? Here is an analysis without any fluff. I have scoured the dark corners of the internet, checked the facts and I will be completely direct. This is a record that importers may not print and frame, but you must read it. So - Slovenian Car of the Year 2026.

The year 2026 will be a turning point in the world of hairdressing. After many years of perfectly ironed strands, geometric lines and hair tired of chemical processes, a radical change is coming. The world's greatest stylists - those who shape trends from the front row of catwalks and Instagram - are announcing a return to the natural beauty of hair. No pretense, no "photoshopped" hairstyles, no unnecessary fight against your own texture. Let's take a look at the fashionable hairstyles of 2026.

Goodbye, expensive serums! 7 ways regular Nivea in a blue box beats luxury cosmetics – this is real men's cosmetics

We all have it - that blue can hidden somewhere in the depths of the bathroom cabinet among half-empty bottles of overpriced serums and promises of eternal youth. Nivea cream. Icon. Legend. But if you think it's only good for lubricating dry elbows in the winter or for days when you run out of your "real" cream, prepare for a serious beauty shock. The blue can is not just a cream; it's the base for an alchemy that will turn your bathroom into a Parisian beauty laboratory. Forget complicated chemical formulas, today we're mixing glamour with pantry ingredients!

Forget toxic cleaners: You can clean your entire oven this easily (and cheaply) with just baking soda

An oven that accumulates layer upon layer of burnt-on grease and crumbs isn't just an aesthetic problem—it's also a generator of unpleasant odors and a potential saboteur of your favorite recipes. If you've been putting off cleaning your oven because the mere thought of commercial cleaners with the smell of industrial disinfectant makes your eyes water, we have good news: there's a way that's easy, effective, and completely natural.

The ultimate solution for powder stains: no trace on a white shirt – works like magic!

Cream can temporarily soften the skin, but it cannot eliminate the cause of dryness on its own. The skin on your hands needs more than just moisture to rebalance and protect itself.

Porsche Carrera GT Sonderwunsch: When the V10 symphony dresses up in the winning Salzburg Design – a tribute to a Le Mans legend

Let's be honest. Most people who decide to "restore" a car do so because rust has eaten away at the sills or because the engine sounds like a coffee grinder with nails in it. But in the world of the ultra-rich, where the Porsche Carrera GT Sonderwunsch is the holy grail of analog motoring, the word "restore" means something entirely different. It means taking something that's already perfect and stripping it down to its bare essentials, just to make the dream of red and white a reality. Victor Gómez from Puerto Rico did just that—and the result is so good that even the Mona Lisa would look like a quick sketch on a napkin. This is the Porsche Carrera GT Sonderwunsch.

It's not baking soda, it's not vinegar: salt is the new queen of natural cleaning - these 8 tricks really work

But these humble white grains actually have much broader potential. Salt is a natural, affordable, and versatile ingredient that has been part of household hacks for centuries. What are now considered “cleaning hacks” were once known to our grandmothers, but they didn’t need TikTok to do it.

Mek Magnet “Ugly Sweater”: When your Jeep Wrangler or Ford Bronco wears the “coolest” Christmas sweater

We all know that moment. The Christmas party where your aunt makes you wear that knitted sweater with the reindeer on it and the red nose made of felt. The shame is immense, the dignity is zero, but somewhere deep inside you feel warm - and not just because polyester is flammable. Now imagine putting that same "shame" on the manliest thing to ever roll out of Detroit or Toledo. I'm talking about the Mek Magnet "Ugly Sweater" body armor. It's not just a sticker. It's ballistic resin that turns your Jeep Wrangler or Ford Bronco into a holiday parade, while also protecting it when you decide to knock down the Christmas tree with your own bumper.

Gold-worthy aluminum foil tricks: 7 household chores it does better than most gadgets from TV sales

Although its main role is traditionally tied to the kitchen, it has a surprisingly wide range of functions that can be used far beyond its classic boundaries.

The trick to cleaning your refrigerator with vinegar: grease stains and fingerprints disappear like a mirage

If your refrigerator is starting to look like something from a crime scene—with its greasy coating, fingerprints, and smudges of unknown origin—you’re not alone.

Mercedes-Benz Unimog U 4023 Concept: When the world's best working machine goes to the opera and becomes the ultimate toy

This is a Unimog that is not used to plow the fields, but to show dominance in front of the casino in Monte Carlo.

End of an era at Mercedes-Benz: Gorden Wagener – The man who created legends and divided the world

If you think car designers are just quiet artists in black suits drawing lines in the basement, you're wrong. At least not in the case of Gorden Wagener. He was a rock star. The man who took Mercedes' hat off and put on its sunglasses. But on January 31, 2026, that era is coming to an end. After 28 years and countless scratches on the clay (and probably on the egos of his competitors), Gorden Wagener is leaving Stuttgart.

Jaguar Type 00: 1000 horses (745 kW) that angered the world – is this the end or a glorious new beginning for a legend?

Jaguar has done everything it can to make us hate it in recent months. With strange logos, advertising campaigns that look like a fashion show for aliens, and a promise not to "copy anything." But before we write off this British icon as a victim of its own marketing, let's pause. Underneath all that "woke" glitz, there's a monster. A three-engine monster that will tear up the asphalt faster than the Internet can tear up the nerves of purists. It's the Jaguar Type 00.

I'm no longer your backup: sooner or later we outgrow people who only love us when it suits them

Relationships fall apart. It doesn't happen suddenly. There's no argument, no dramatic farewell, no big words. You just notice one day that you're holding back in conversations, that you're no longer explaining everything you feel because you know it won't be understood. You notice that you've become quieter, more careful, less demanding. Not because the relationship has changed, but because you've changed. And then, for the first time, the question that you've been avoiding for a long time arises: can you still love someone if you can't grow with them anymore?
