Newham Council towed my car due to parking permit did not auto
renew

Hi all, I am about to collect my car fron Newham car pound and
do not have the PCN number yet. I just want advice if I have a
ground to apoeal because the system failed to auto renew my
resident parking permit which it had for 10 months. I did not
receive no reminder or advance warning that they will not auto
renew my permit. I will post photos of any supporting documents
once I have collected the car.

Pay the charges (would be wholly or partly refunded if your reps
are wholly or partly successful), collect the car and make sure
you park it legally.
You will be making reps on 2 grounds - 1) against the PCN (if
thare are grounds) and 2) against the removal (if
disproportionate), so then post up all sides of all paperwork
received at the pound (only redact tr name & address), any
council photos, and a GSV link to the location so we can see
what grounds there may be to make reps.

Here are the PCN and invoice from the car pound. Another PCN was
still in the windscreen soaking wet and still need to be paid.

OP, your car was towed because it was in contravention and
according to the council fell within the scope of its policy for
removing vehicles in these circumstances. As we understand it,
the contravention was being parked without displaying a valid
permit or displaying an invalid permit. We'll know when we see
the PCNs.
As regards 'Another PCN was still in the windscreen soaking wet
and still need to be paid.', IMO no. The authority may not
recover further charges after the event, they should have
recovered these while you were at the pound:
In the case of a vehicle found in an area that is a civil
enforcement area for parking contraventions, the relevant
charges are—
(a)any penalty charge payable in respect of the parking of the
vehicle in the place from which it was removed,
(b)such unpaid earlier penalty charges relating to the vehicle
as may be prescribed, and
(c)such sums in respect of the removal and storage of the
vehicle—
(i)as the authority may require in accordance with Schedule 9 of
the Traffic Management Act 2004
Which PCN was paid, the earlier or the later(in terms of their
dates of contravention)?
