28A Place making car needs parking for it? That's unnecessary! (2,4). Can someone please help me to parse this? I have De Trop for unnecessary but can' see why.
16D Nervous picadors scattered (8). I have SPORADIC but I wouldn't have thought that was 'nervous'. Am I wrong?

De trop (unnecessary; unwelcome) - 'Detro-it', use 'P(arking)' for 'it' Sporadic is right, 'nervous' is the anagram indicator, 'scattered' is the definition

Sporadic = scattered
16 I put sporadic
De trop (unnecessary; unwelcome) - 'Detro-it', use 'P(arking)' for 'it'

Sporadic is right, 'nervous' is the anagram indicator, 'scattered' is the definition

anag Picadors

You're right, Scorpiojo and Lie-in-King. I was focussing on the wrong word as anagram indicator. Thanks.
And thanks for the De Trop parsing. Easy when you know! :-)
