Hi all. Does anyone know if you can use a disabled sticker for your car in Spain

No, Brexit took away that right.
That said the police seem to take absolutely zero interest in any form of abuse of disabled parking spaces, and boy do the locals abuse them, so I think you'd be exceptionally unfortunate to get pulled up for using one with a UK badge.

My understanding is that if you are a tourist on holiday its not a problem ie. if you have your own UK reg car or a hire car. I use the translation as described above when using ours. We have never had a problem when we visit. That is if you can find a free space!

Disabled parking badges showing the name of the holder which have been issued by another EU country can be used in Spain until they expire. This does not now include badges issued in the UK.Jan 8, 2023

Ive just been reading up on it and it says to consult your town hall as some of Spain are OK with it?

Did his car have a UK plate?
