Avia is calling it  'an incident' but then refer to  a collison.

So not quite sure, the driver said'doubt you'll hear anything mate, but if they buy a new plastic ad. I'll have to pay for it'

There was only a mark on the plastic bit, no damage that I could see.

Course I ditched all the details weeks ago, because nothing had  happened about it.

Not keen on losing my ncd over a minor claim either.

I think it's standard practice for them to try to get you to pay up regardless.  I was run into when I was stationary and the other guy's insurer said 'let's just say it's knock for knock'    Err... no, let's not...    I'd play dumb and just say 'Not that I remember,' and ask what they think happened.

Sounds like a plan Kaffs, anything could have happened to that van in 5 months,could even be a whole different van,lol.

I don't want the driver to be out of pocket, if he had to pay for the plastic add thing, but the whole things strikes me as odd, and I don't want to yes that was me, and then find out the van is practiaclly a write off or some thing.

I said' sorry mate, the wind  whipped the door out of my hand and it banged your van'

did you take any pictures of the damage?  You probably didn't think to and that's what most insurance companies are hoping.  As Kaffs said, play dumb and say you don't recall any collision. 

yep - if they're saying you were in a collision, it's perfectly acceptable to say 'no I wasn't'    Tell them to bugger off.    Move house.   

It's great fun.

T6hanks all, nice to have  unbiased  views on the situation.

Think I'll down the 'I haven't had a collision' route, as that's true and it may spur them on to tell me what they after.
