Caught out on the street – The SSC Ultimate Aero. It’s not everyday that you pop down to the supermarket and find an SSC sat outside a fish and chip shop, parking illegally. We know this car from a couple of shops around town and as far as we know it’s running a 6.34 L (387 cu in) with its boost set at 14 psi (0.97 bar), resulting in 1,187 hp. All that while running on snotty Dubai petrol…Not bad for a daily hack!
