    There is no reason to get your knickers in twist you only posted one minute prior to this one.

    Ignore anything you get.

    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    You have not been given a parking ticket or a fine:
    From a legal prospective what you have been given is an "invitation to pay a private invoice".
    You are legally within your rights to reject the invitation and keep your money:
    What will happen is they will buy your private data from DVLA and send a series of menacing letters threatening to take you to court and then more letters from fake debt collectors and fake solicitors again all threatening to take you to court.
    They will not take you to court as legally they have no power to fine you or charge you a penalty.
    In short it is a scam of impersonation of officialdom and empty threats.
    HOW TO DEAL:
    IGNORE everything, ignore all letters, ignore all fake solicitors letters and ignore all fake debt collectors.
    They will get fed up and move on to another victim.
    IGNORE Means exactly that IGNORE, you do not appeal, there is no appeal it is part of the scam, you do not bite back, do not write or do anything to correspond and they will go away, if they call your telephone, do not confirm any information place the handset down and leave it of the hook for ten minutes .
    BE WARNED evidence on these and other forums clearly describes how people who do pay these hoping they go away receive further demands for more money, often several hundreds of pounds.
