It doesn't matter if you can see the sign or not when you park, as long as the sign is there they are covered, they just have to prove the sign was there before anything happened to the car. ITs the same with signs saying a floor is slippery when wet - basically you park the car or walk on the floor at your own risk.

Seeing as there was no sign up in the car park, you can claim against them, but its best to get the person who saw it happen make a statement to this effect as well as stating that it had fallen over before and not been fixed - otherwise it can be seen as an accident and you may have to claim on your own car insurance.
