go to a solicitor and threaten to sue them.

Aren't the AA checks backed by an insurance policy in case they get it wrong? Can't you claim on that?

do it the easy way. go to the citizens advice bureau. its free advice and they know all the stuff. 'phone them for an appointment, they will make some 'phone calls and probably scare the a.a. to death. really is the best way for the man in the street who doesn't want to spend a fortune on court cases's etc. Ive used them before and there super.
good luck, alf.

Tell them in no uncertain terms that it's not your fault their data wasn't up to date tell them you have taken legal advice(even if it's only from a friend) and intend to escalate the matter if it is not sorted out satisfactorily in 28 days.
Ask them them to whom a court summons should be issued to (small claims possibly) and await their reply

If you think you are right fight your corner
