Parking ticket in my own parking space

[Zeepster]

My managing agency for my flat recently changed parking companies and issued a new parking permit.
I admit I hadn't placed the new permit on my windscreen and I rarely use the car at the moment so completely forgot, but I still had the old parking permit which should in theory point out that the car is owned by me and parked in my own parking space.
What's the chances of getting this fine thrown out? I'm a bit miffed that I would have to pay 60 quid for my own car parked in it's own parking space allocated to my flat.
It also seems so backwards that to complain I have to send them a letter rather than email them!

Any help appreciated.

I'm off to write a letter!

cheers

Cheers for the advice guys. I've sent them off a letter with photos showing my car with the old and new permit.

I hadn't used the car for two weeks and completely forgot about the new permit, but my car was showing the old permit which sort of indicates that the car is where it's meant to be. Probably not that they care about that.
