Won tribunal, process has been extremely stressful!

I have just been to the tribunal and won my appeal!! This process has taken around a year and has been extremely stressful. Please, if you can, carry on to the bitter end as many people are successful. What a waste of time and public money this has been. I would like to protest about the whole thing. Are there any protests going on anywhere and can anyone Join in?

???? I don't understand. If the car was to go back after you failed the assessment for mobility who has been paying for it for the past 6 months or so whilst waiting for an appeal hearing?
I thought that once you had the Enhanced Mobility stopped your car has to go back.
After I got my decisions the car was back at the garage about a week after the decision letter came.
2) Tribunals have a judge; a medically qualified professional (could be a surgeon, consultant, specialist, GP and so on) and a DQTM (disability quakidye trubunak member. They are someone with experience of disability. They could be disabled; be a social worker or a carer etc.
3) Never go alone. Always look for representation.
're my appeal, it is important that you put down in the form whether you can or can not do things safely, to an acceptable standard as often as you need to and in a reasonable time with or without help. Tel the tribunal about good and bad times. E.g. if sometimes you can walk a little longer distance that is a good thing, but if MOST of the time it is impossible to walk, the tribunal need to understand this more.
The particular panel of people at my tribunal were a medical doctor, a disability representative and a Judge. That was just my experience. I can not say what other panels are made up of. I hope this clarifies my experience of the process.
