Private parking fine help needed - flat complex

Hi!
I would be grateful for some help where I have received a £60 parking fine from New Generation Parking Management and could do with some advice before I lodge an appeal.
I am the owner of a flat in a complex of flats. I have an undercroft parking space which is accessed via a shutter roller door. Unfortunately the shutter door has been broken for a couple of weeks and when I got home the other week someone had parked in my space, which I pay for. I tried to put my car in a visitor space but they were all taken at the time. I therefore parked my car in an area where other cars were parked and often are always parked which does not restrict anyone's access. I displayed a large handwritten sign in my windscreen explaining why I had had to park there, provided my flat number and my mobile number in case there were any issues. A visitor space became available within approximately 90 minutes of parking there and so I moved the car. A week or so later I have a £60 parking fine.
Do you think I have good grounds for mitigating circumstances to appeal this 'fine'. How would people recommend I proceed? It leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth that I am being penalised for someone parking in my space which I pay a yearly fee to have.
Thanks in advance for your help - it is greatly appreciated.
