A close friend of mine had a Testarrossa and a disabled badge. He sometimes got called up on it by ignorant indignant people.

I was with him once when he felt obliged to present his evidence to a righteous granny who promptly skitted away with tail between legs. He happened to be returning from the clinic on that occasion, so had ample paperwork with him.
Clay Regazzoni had an early red Testarossa with hand controls. My brother and I saw it in the paddock at Monza '86.

The odds are a lot lower than that. And the odds of someone passing abusive judgements incorrectly are vastly lower wink

About 4% of the country's population have a blue badge - 2.5 million iirc.

That just wasted a couple of minutes of my life. I could eat my gopro and poop a better movie than that.

To be completely safe best to park at the furthest part of the car park where lazy dumbwits do not go to.
Doesn't work. I guarantee that, even if you park as far away as you possibly can with no cars with in a 50 yard radius, when you come back there will be a battered Fiesta parked so close you can barely open your door and get in.

That is so true. I had to take a photo of this example - my mate and I parked at the far end of the supermarket car park well away from everyone and yet someone decided that of all the spaces available the best one was next to me (to be fair at least they left room).
I call them sheeple.

It doesn't matter what you are doing, you always get someone who wants to come and sit next to you. I went camping once in Germany, set up the tent at the far end of the campsite and went out for the day. Came back and someone else had pitched their tent so close that my guy rope was actually under pegged their tent! Even better, they had a young baby with them....

On a run this morning, I had my phone on me but it was strapped to my arm and I didn't want to interrupt my workout by farting about unstrapping it and then spending ages re-attaching it after taking a photo; so no photo I'm afraid.

If I am not mistaken Samuel; tries to disguise his rather privileged upbringing by deleting posts which mention his dad. Not surprisingly this does not go down well on social media especially when you try to pretend you can afford an F40 at 20 with your own hard earned money

I read that too. Why bloody lie? If your dad bought it for you so what, yeah you will get a few haters through jealousy I guess but I'd pat you on the back and say enjoy. Just don't bloody lie, it makes you look a fool.

That's really funny laugh
Instagram has made the whole world go bloody mental. Like the male equivalent of tagthesponsor is lying about spending your family money on cars.

He seems to describe himself as a property developer and gives the impression that he is self made.

At 19, he must have had a good couple of deals to fund his garage.

If I had a petrolhead son and sold my business for £1.35 billion, like his father, I'd see he had the opportunity to drive some proper cars too. I'd enjoy showing them how to handle them and respect them (and learning myself too, to be fair).

And maybe teach him not to give the impression of a grade A stupid spoilt tt as well ? (that's how he come across)

To be fair, that Reliant looks completely out of place.
