Sally do you have a copy of your defence?

Hi All
This is my first ever post, therefore apologies if my terminology is incorrect or I miss something.
I have read the threads, but have some questions if anyone can please help...
I have received court order from CEL and sent off my defence (unfortunately I did this before I read all the threads) and I ask for mediation.
My defences was as follows:
I would like to appeal/defend this parking charge due to my car
breaking down. I can provide a copy of the Mansfield Breakdown
Assistance Report if required as evidence.

I entered the parking area unintentionally, due to difficulties
with driving my car. I parked the car to call my breakdown
assistance cover. Thereafter I was unable to start or move the
vehicle and waited for the recovery team to attend. My car was
then recovered to a local garage for repair.

I would also like to point out that I have not received any
correspondence from Civil Enforcement Ltd regarding this parking
charge. I have recently moved to my new address (*******, ******).

I hope this is sufficient information, however please do not
hesitate to contact me if you require any further information.
Kind regards…
I received a hearing letter confirming to attend court next week on the 17th and a letter from CEL that they would reduce the amount to £125 if I would pay in 7 days (last day for this today).
Do you think I should bite the bullet and make payment, I have put a witness statement together yet and a bit unsure how to do this.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks, Rick

Why are you duplicate posting on someone else's thread? Please start your own new thread for bespoke advice about your parking charge, but after you've read the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, post #2, which explains everything there.
