PCN - Armtrack and payment request from BW Legal

I received a PCN from ARMTRAC and tried to appeal several times within the 28 day time scale. They replied to my appeals stating I could not appeal as I had not name the driver (I informed them I was the owner of the vehicle and was appealing). I was appealing as the signs state you have to park within an allocated bay but no bays are marked within the car park as it is just a private field. I then tried to appeal to IPC but was unable to lodge an appeal as the fine has not been registered with IPC. I asked AMTRAC about this and their response was..
"As you failed to to supply us with the information previously requested [sic naming the driver], no appeal was addressed. Therefore your details have not been uploaded onto the IPC website.As previously stated in our last response.
This matter is now closed and we will not enter into any further correspondence regarding an appeal for this PCN."
I have now received a demand for £160 from bw legal specialists for full payment within 16 days otherwise they will take court proceedings.
Should I pay the £160 to avoid further fees?

I love the "specialists" bit. You only use the word for professionals, certainly not BWLegal ???
This is just a debt chasing letter giving 16 days.IGNORE IT
Wait for a "letter before claim" which they must give you full proof of their claim PLUS 30 days to respond
You do not owe £160 this is a BWLegal scam charge
BWLEGAL ADD ON A FAKE £60 ?
In addition to the 'parking charge', the Claimant's legal representatives, BWLegal, have artificially inflated the value of the Claim by adding costs of £60 which has not actually been incurred by the Claimant, and which are artificially invented figures in an attempt to circumvent the Small Claims costs rules using double recovery. >>>> thanks to bargepole
