Armtrac, Alliance Parking or who?

99% sure it's Armtrac. I will be 100% sure once I can get down there to check, and photograph the signage again.

If it fits within the bay, that presumably would require the parking attendant to measure the vehicle or to consult manufacturer specifications before issuing the PCN. That strikes me as a challenge.

Well the cheek! I'll have you know my local parking attendant has 2 PHDs.... oh look, there's a pig going by the window.

I'd doubt that they could even spell "PHD"

I have met em, more than a few times! CouponMad knows all about these cowboys as do many others no doubt! I had to peel one of their 'attendants' off a poor old man the 'attendant' squared up to VERY aggressively (while wearing his gopro (pigeon) chest cam)! Turns out he and the other attendant (who I told about it, he's ok) had a falling out a few weeks later when he saw the same other attendant aggressively accost someone else who wasn't even over on their ticket. The funniest part is the good one didn't want to start a fight in the car park, not too professional, so invited his 'colleague' to another car park to 'sort it out'. The other guy never turned up, and was fired soon after. Nice bunch these attendants, and speaks volumes of Armtrac to employ such a person (and only fired him due to the insistance of the other attendant about his behaviour)
