    Ha, same here Rob….!

    However, on a serious note Peter, although I do not often respond I really do appreciate your posts on here and especially the sharing of your wide and varied knowledge…. (Over the past few years I have increasingly suffered reactions to wasp and bee stings and insect bites but I would never have made the link to eating a big steak; something I now unexpectedly know I need to keep an eye on going forward..)

    I would appeal explaining the circumstances and if they reject it appeal again through POPLA. https://www.popla.co.uk/

    I recently successfully challenged a similar fine for going through Heathrow terminal 2 dropoff zone by mistake.

    Thanks again Mike, just to close this loop out to its happy conclusion: POPLA just came through and threw the entire nonsense right out, just annoying how low NCP weasels stoop…

    in fact, the only other car that I have not competed in to make it onto my garage ‘wall of fame’!…. I understood that a wealthy Dutchman paid circa £200k just to get an entry in the Milia-Miglia retro procession…

    Thanks Mike, my appeal got swiftly rejected but I will now follow your link; this annoys me as much as the principle to NCP skimming the money off. The ‘photo evidence’ they submit only, and clearly, shows me stopping to let someone cross the ‘zebra’!

    Asking for a friend B)…….. recently, back in early May, I dropped my wife at Gatwick and paid the £5 charge on line the same day. Now NCP have sent a £100 fine for "stopping on the red route", they have photographs of me; and an entire queue of us! - The photo shows my wife hopping out while i am stopped at a zebra for someone crossing.

    This is in hope rather than expectation, i suppose that I am bang to rights but, has NCP really got the authority to act like this? (When I paid them for the drop-off charge!)

    Thanks Bob,

    Yep, the Lancia is the only somewhat ‘exotic’ one and I really enjoyed my Vitesse years ago; the straight six on song was an unmistakable sound.

    However, based on my first car being an Imp I’ve always hankered after one that might possibly work most rather than some of the time B)……. To be fair, I paid £8.00 (negotiated down from the original £15.00 - based on having a brand new spare tyre that did not fit the wheels?!)
