"Because it is a fake Penalty Notice. It is an "offered contract" that uses unlawful language."
"A better word for it all is extortion."
I am sure the DVLA are well aware and as we speak contemplating actioning the relevant KADOE contract breach as follows:-
https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/kadoe_service_contract_informati/response/1683411/attach/4/FOIR8718 annex 1.pdf
"F2. Prevention of Fraud
F2.1. The Customer shall take all reasonable steps, in accordance with Industry Best Practice, to prevent Fraud by the Customer’s Staff and the Customer (including its shareholder, members, and directors) in connection with the receipt of the KADOE Service.
F2.2. The Customer shall notify the DVLA immediately, within a maximum of 24 hours of becoming aware, if it has reason to suspect that any Fraud has occurred or is occurring or is likely to occur.
F2.3. If the Customer or its Staff commits Fraud in relation to this or any other contract with the Crown (including the DVLA) the DVLA may:
a) terminate the Contract and recover from the Customer the amount of any loss suffered by the DVLA resulting from the termination; or
b) recover in full from the Customer any other loss sustained by the DVLA in consequence of any breach of this clause.2 -
Did you raise a complaint with APCOA? Do you have a POPLA code? Given the length of time since the parking event, I doubt you can now appeal to POPLA.Best running this down to the 6 months 'end of the line'.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Also, NTOwner came 69 days after the ‘date of issue of notice’, is this an automatic win at POPLA?
However, there is no keeper liability on land controlled via bylaws, no relevant land in this case, so understand the basics here3 -
Appealed notice to owner unsuccessfully (not declaring who was driving) and got a POPLA code. Didn’t raise a complaint. Would like to put in a winning POPLA appeal please.0

Once that secret is revealed, study recent applicable cases, especially in the popla decisions thread in announcements1 -

OK, so find and use a recent railway station popla appeal, as keeper, based on not relevant land So no keeper liability2

And use the other winning point that APCOA only have landowner authority to issue a parking charge notice, but this is a PN. Not an authorised regime.
That's in any recent APCOA Penalty Notice POPLA landowner thread. Those are your search words!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
