It has now been revealed that the terrorists bought a "park and display" ticket at the parking facility. Can you shed any light on whether this bolsters our theory that they were less than willing to committ suicide? Or not?

I don't think that proves it one way or another. These tickets are obligatory at many rail carparks. Basically you pay in advance for parking at the machine it prints out a ticket showing the time you must return by and then you put this on your dashboard. Ticket inspectors walk around and anyone whose ticket has expired or who does not have a ticket on display will get wheel clamped.
If they did not intend to commit suicide then they certainly would have bought a ticket! However, if they knew they were on a suicide mission they would likley have bought a ticket also, just so that no attention was drawn the vehicle in the hours between them parking at the rail station and getting to their targets.
