So yesterday afternoon a couple of workmen that are working on my block knocked at the door and told me someone had just hit my car. I went down and it was the person who regularly parks next to me, an old clapped out P reg golf, covered in damage anyway.
The woman got out and said "is it ok?" so i said ofcourse its not alright, you've done a lot of damage there. Then her friend said something in another language and suddenly she said "I didnt hit the car, no, i didnt".
Basically, shes pulled in too shallow, and done the rear bumper, veryyyy bottom of the rear quarter, scraped the alloy, along the bottom of the drivers rear and into the drivers front.
Anywhos, she decided at that point that she didnt speak english anymore, and walked off. Now I know most people are going to say "should of called the police there and then" etc - But it's her husbands car, and he's a jolly chap who always says hello etc, But i cant seem to catch him! Knocked on the door three times now, shes answered and says he isnt in.
So i've left it with her that if he doesnt come and knock on my door by thisevening, or she gives me the insurance details, i'll be calling the police.
To be honest, Im rather hoping he will offer to pay for it w/o insurance, cause i dont really want to get into another claim, even though I have 2 independant witness'.
So yeah, be nice and wait for him to contact (presuming he doesnt tonight) or just contact police/mib and get details and just claim??
