1. Wait until a couple of days before the fine is due then express post them a letter explaining the situation.
2. 6 months later they'll write you a letter saying some BS about not being able to let you off for such an offence regardless of your previous driving history or extenuating circumstances.
They will also give you another 14 days to pay.
3. Write them another letter asking for copies of relevant documents (radar calibration, brand, model, area's radar suitability survey etc.)
4. 6 months later they'll send you a letter saying that you have to contact the freedom of info bureau or some such rubbish.
They will give you another 14 days to pay.
5. Request the info from the Freedom of info bureau... they will take another couple of months to get the cops to send over the info.
By now it has been at least 13-14+ months since you got the fine! The documents have more than likely been lost or archived in hard to retrieve places.
See the cops pass on the details to the infringement processing bureau (just a copy of the infringement notice) and then consider their job done... if they hear nothing for ages (1+ years) they generally archive the other info and couldn't be f'cked retrieving it.
Its like in any job... you give marketing something... they didn't do anything with it and then come back 1 year later asking for more details... you're like well f'ck off then its not my fault you can't do your job properly!

I have just tried this exact thing. After so many months of asking for documents and such, I finally got a letter from SPER's saying that the time I had to argue in court was up and that I had to pay the fine. I had my solicitor write back to SPER's saying I have a legal right to have my day in Court and all the bullshit. This went back and forward for a while until I was finally allowed my day. I turned up to court and basically said that I didn't aggree with what the officer accused me of, the magistrate then asked if I was accusing the cop of lying, I said no and that the cop was simply mistaken. To my surprise the magistrate then said that purgery cases could not be dealt with in a magistrate court and she would sending this to the blah blah blah court. I thought this was all cool until my solicitor said that if I turn up to this court it will cost me 10k and upwards and if I don't turn up it will be around 8k.
So if your planning on arguing your case, make sure you think carefully about what you say
