Incomplete registration on Bucks PCN plus I had a ticket anyway!

EDIT - as this is my first post, the forum won't allow me to include the photos I am referring to, hopefully you can understand it without them.

I recently received a PCN ticket whilst parked in a council run car park in Aylesbury

Now, I actually had purchased a ticket and was displaying it, it appears it had slipped down the windscreen slightly, but it was just about visible. It could be that the warden knocked the ticket down when he stuck the PCN on the windscreen! See attached photos, you can see the ticket directly under where the warden stuck the PCN (circled in white)

I was going to appeal on this basis, but I have also noticed a problem with the actual PCN. It appears the warden's printer must have been dodgy, as it;s only printed half the text on the ticket. Much of the wording is cut off on the right hand side, the end of the date is missing (the year!!) but most importantly the registration is incomplete! They have only shown the first four characters of the plate - indeed on the payment slip at the bottom there is no registration plate at all! See arrows on photo

My question is, can I appeal on the basis of the number plate being incomplete, or should I stick to the fact I had a ticket anyway! I feel rather aggrieved that he ticketed me so absolutely do not want to pay this!

Many thanks for any assistance you might be able to give

as this is council you need to post in the appropriate council section over on pepipoo forums, because this forum mainly deals with PRIVATE parking tickets (not council)

Yes, post a topic there, showing them the PCN (BOTH SIDES!):
