Here's our email correspondence to date:
I have taken measures to protect my identity.

Dear TfL,
Today I received a PCN for a car I no longer own. You ask for a written representation but do not
provide the means to return the form, so here is my representation:
I sold the vehicle on 12th February 2004 and filled in the log book and posted it to DVLA, as
required by law, on 14th February 2004.
I am in no way responsible for any actions the current owner of this vehicle may make and am
therefore not responsible for its entering the charging zone.
I consider this matter now closed.
Kind regards, Speedy Gonzalez

Dear Mr Gonzalez,
Central London Congestion Charging - 684073 / MS
Thank you for your recent inquiry regarding your Penalty Charge Notice.
As the issue of a Penalty Charge Notice forms part of a legal process we are only able to accept
written communication in respect of them .
The Congestion Charging Scheme is non profit - making . By law, all money raised by the scheme must
be spent on London Transport services. For this reason administration costs must be kept to a
minimum and so we are not able to bear the cost of postage when customers' write to us.
If you have any questions, please contact us on 0845 900 1234 ( or Minicom number 020 7649 9123 ) or
visit our website www.cclondon.com
.
Thank you for contacting Transport for London .
Yours sincerely

Dear Sharon,
Thank you for your email attachment.
I am not a customer of yours, never have been, and never intend to be.
I was not the legal owner of the car which drove into the congestion zone, and if you make enquiries
with DVLA I am convinced they will confirm this fact.
I completed all forms with regard to the sale of my former car in full accordance with the law.
I do not see why I should suffer any financial loss as the result of an event over which I have
absolutely no liability. If you feel that I should suffer a financial loss, I would enjoy reading
your explanation.
Kind regards, Speedy Gonzalez
PS I would very much appreciate it if you could reply in plain text and not as an email attachment.
