What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant argued that the price per m2 should remain at £65/m2 (as in the 2010 list) with no growth in the used car market, citing Knight Frank commentary and comparable secondary showrooms. The tribunal found that each rating list requires a fresh assessment, the car market had demonstrably recovered and grown by 2015, rental evidence from comparable properties in the locality supported an increase, and settlement summaries showed consistency with a £70/m2 rate. The tribunal dismissed the appeals and confirmed the VO's determination of £70/m2.
