The 17th car wheel design was unused for a future next update. It was later reused as a sticker.
Hill Drive - 4th terrain
In the Hill Drive land folders, there is a 4th model that has not been released. This one will be called 'Rocks' in an upcoming update.
"Whales" flag
There is an unused copy of the Welsh flag body sticker in the game files with the file name "Whales". Unlike the one used in the game, the dragon on the flag has a black outline. The flag file got removed in 1.4.116
