Today i had a small bump in a car park both cars reversing from opposite sides and turned into each other at very low speed. rear bumper to rear bumper. Other car was an Audi S3, myself and other drivers partner looked at both cars, I can see no damage to my bumper the other guy said he had a paint flake off, after exchanging details I asked what he wanted to do, to me there was nothing to report but he said he would get a quote and call me before his partner called her insurance.
As I drove home I thought does he want me to pay for some repair without involving insurance? to me it's nothing to repair, at worst a polish over. If they want to involve the insurance companies it will be 50 50 and we will both get an insurance hike next renewal.
Not sure how to proceed now as my photo of their car does not show the full reg which I thought it had or his partners name, only their insurance company and his mobile number
