Supercars spotted, some rarities (vol 7)
Discussion
Cheating a little as these were in a parade. But unintentionally stumbled upon it and didn't expect to see any of these beauts.
Classic alfas, a TZ2, 6C 3000, and I believe a Tipo P3?
Brightened up a rainy NYC, and the noise when they opened them up was incredible.

Beautiful Alfas, but this is an 8C Monza rather than a P3. Spotted a blue McLaren P1 wearing a full GTR bodykit, rear wing, aero, etc, while I was at Oldschool Windscreens this morning.
I'm not sure if it was an actual GTR as I don't think they were ever road registered in the UK and were track specials for existing customers only? Although saying that, I guess if you're a rich enough owner I'm sure you could afford to get it registered via the usual tests / McLaren factory, etc.
Either way it sounded very nice accelerating away and off in the direction of Longcross studios / housing development.

There are a few road legal ones. Lazante played a part in getting them compliant. Andy B has a road legal one in the same livery as his F1 GTR.

Blue badges are a reasonable size (~5in square), so would very likely be visible, certainly in the second photo.
Use occam's razor - while still possible he's disabled, it's very likely this chap didn't want his brand-new Lambo scratched (he appears to be in Tesco's car park, after all), so compounded his first mistake by parking where he shouldn't be and thus appearing tttish.
Me? I'd have found the furthest, widest space in the whole car park...or failing that, parked across two spaces (as that's less tttish than using a disabled space)

The Lamborghini isn’t parked at Tesco, it was parked at the Casa Hotel in Chesterfield.
