    Guys dad,

    I have just done a popla appeal against one of my many cps midlands tickets and all i put in it was:

    I dont believe this is a genuine pre estimate of loss, i put CPS Midlands to strict proof of these looses for breach CPS rules in this free car park.

    Think that will win,

    I think it depends on on the adjudicator to be honest. We have seen it go both ways and also the same in court.

    I would always spell out what are the costs of running a business such as wages, uniforms, signs etc and establish that point on the grounds that they would still be there if my car had been elsewhere.

    I would say that the DVLA cost, a small amount for stationery and postage are the true losses. Judge McIlwaine said as much in the ibbotson case. Check it out.

    Is it too late to add to your appeal?
