Noticed some damage and residue of red paint on my nearside bumper tonight.
Only driven the car twice since cleaning it so that significantly narrows down the time of the accident.
Dash cam footage shows a red car parked next to me at the gym (right under the CCTV) as well.
My camera only picked up the front quarter of the offending car as I drove off (I didn’t notice the damage at the time) so I’m pretty sure this is the offending vehicle.
Contacted the gym and given them the date, and the time I arrived/left.
They are reviewing the footage but told me to contact the police as they cannot release information due to data protection.
What do you guys think. Should I chase it up and proceed with insurance or just take it on the chin?
I’m ridiculously annoyed but in the same breath, claiming on the insurance is likely to increase my premiums regardless of it being a non fault claim.
Here’s the worst of it. There’s more scratches out of frame.
