Notice of Keeper Liability

lgfbrown

I posted previously about a PCN for parking ON THE WHITE LINES OF A BAY due to another car parking skewed, and the fact I now no longer own the car. They're saying I parked not in the confines of a marked bay.

Well I ignored their first letter and they rejected my appeal. Had no contact now since May till just today. I've been sent a Notification of Keeper Liability saying I have 14 days to pay otherwise a £25 administration fee will be added to the amount and enforcement action/ county court action will be taken.

Should I pay even though I feel it's unfair and can't strictly speaking afford it without going into overdraft? I don't want court action and this affecting my credit etc. Seeing as I have now sold the car I feel this isite unfair but I don't want it to get worse?

Thanks

Edit: there is no logo on this letter and no POPLA or other organisation. Not even signed by anyone.

Plus the date of issue is 04/05/16 and I had 14 days from this date!

Previous Timeline of events:

30/03/16: Buy Rover 25 from well known reputable garage, admittedly without documents confirming head gasket had been done. Mate who knows about engines said it was sound after test drive.

30/04/16: The 'incident' happens. No PCN on the windscreen.

06/05/16: The head gasket goes. Garage give me the money back. Old owner had not given V5C to myself (had lost it!), so technically she was still owner.

19/05/16: Buy new car. Garage present me with a postal PCN the old owner has brought in that she got (see attached). Garage help me with appeal as they see it as not worthy of a fine, for a car I don't even drive now.

20/05/16: Appeal is, of course, rejected. (see attached)

My issue is that the old owner will continue to receive letters, and I have read elsewhere that these 'fines' basically get forgotten about and I am unsure what to do next. I wish to pursue this appeal because it is very petty - I am causing no blockage, cars can easily get around me with no issue and the car to the right was parked slightly to the right when I arrived, so that explains the parking with the wheel. I was under the impression the white line still counted as the bay, especially with the space next to it being fine to get through. I have got landed with this weeks after for a car I don't now own and has been scrapped.


They are saying I was not parked within a marked bay, even though I am in the bay. (Have JPEGs but can't attach onto here?)

What do I do? Obviously I don't want to pay this but is it better to pay than avoid potential hassle or does it go away eventually? Should I contact my old owner as I have her address?
