Ticket says I drive a FERRARI!!! I don't. Should I appeal?

Hi,
I just received a pcn from the local council for parking on double yellow lines. On the notice, it lists the make as a Ferrari. (sadly) My car is not a Ferrari. Is this grounds to appeal the ticket?
In all honesty, i shouldn't have parked there. The colour is correct (black), and the car is a sports car... albeit a clapped out old Mazda, not a ferrari by any stretch of the imagination. The registration on the ticket is correct, as is the date and time.
Do you think i'd be wasting time with this one?
Cheers
Dave

The only way the experts can tell is if you post up photo's of the sign, lines and both sides of the pcn. Make/colour of car are immaterial, only the vrm matters regarding the car. The are other details which the council get wrong-wrong signs and wrongly worded paperwork.
Host the copies on tinypic and put the url's on your post with gaps after the http bit, its the only way you can post attachments at present as you are too new. They have had to do this to prevent a lot of spammers and whilst its an inconvenience for you it has worked.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0
