looks like you have been cloned Chan 

write into the Camera enforcement team and explain that the car is first a sales car and has not left London , certainly hasnt been near Doncaster , good way is send invoice of purchase date showing mileage , then a dated picture now showing similar mileage two months later , proof its not been 250 miles north to Doncaster , 

Also ask for their pictures to prove it was you and your car , half the time their pictures will be different to your car , colour , side mirrors , grilles , person driving

Fill in all details and make sure you are not committing perjury, return all paperwork signed as director, fleet sakes manager sole trader etc

If you have legal protection on your motor trade insurance give them a ring too 

Allso consider pepipoo online

We has this couple of years back and great advice given by the lads on the forum. It's a nightmare, check the car is same colour also the number plates help alot as they will have different logos, wheels, if you're lucky it might not even be the same make or model. Good luck

These things can be a nightmare to sort out.tou have my sympathies. Where motoring offences are concerned ‘guilty until proven innocent’

Don’t worry about it. 

What you will have received is probably not a speeding ticket but a 172 notice requiring you to identify the driver of the car so a speeding ticket can be issued.

Clearly, you cannot identify the driver of your car as it wasn’t being driven by anyone when the speeding offence was committed.

Presumably you are not the registered keeper of the car as it will be in trade.

It may take a couple of letters to sort it out but it won’t be hard to prove that you cannot identify the driver.

If he is not the registered keeper, then how have they found his details?

If the car is in trade they will find you . 

i had a NIP come once when out on test drive , came to us because the car was registered in trade under our name , quoted the reg too not the trade Plate number

Its not this simple

A friend had to have the photos blown up to prove the chips on the bonnet were not the same car seen on the m1, it really is a case of guilty till you prove innocence

Rem ember these people want an easy option to process

I had a guy buying a car off me the other week it is a northern Ireland import so m ot history not available e this bloke said no problem my son is a

They’ll just send letters to all previous, and work through. These things can bounce around in the system for ages. It’s like that children’s game of pass-the-parcel. Except nobody wants to unwrap it when the music stops.:)
