Anyway. Cheers for all the thoughts/replies everyone. I'm thinking of offering to meet half way and see what he says:
We were quoted ~£300-350 for a guaranteed repair from a recognised car body shop. He was quoted ~£600 from a main dealer. I'll offer to meet him > half way and say £500, payable in cash on production of an invoice and breakdown from Honda once the work is done. He pays the rest.
If he doesn't like that, then he can choose either the authorised repairer which we pay, or go through insurance, which will affect his renewal (no fault claim).
Everything considered I think that would be a fair offer.
If you're admitting fault via insurance, it won't affect his no claims bonus with his insurance company. It's your (wife's) fault and your insurance company admit your liability. Self-fault vandalism claims are another story.Comment

If you make a non-fault claim, it’s possible you’ll lose some or all of any no-claims discount you’ve accrued over the years, unless it was protected at the time of the claim. It may come as a surprise that you’d lose your no-claims discount for an incident that wasn’t your fault, but it’s important to remember it’s a no-claims discount, not a no-blame discount. Insurers have found that drivers with non-fault claims are more likely to have an at-fault claim in the future, so some may increase your premium to reflect this increased risk.
Now I don't agree with it, but it's a fact nontheless.Originally posted by Nigel Farage MEP - 2016-06-24 04:00:00"I hope this victory brings down this failed project and leads us to a Europe of sovereign nation states, trading together, being friends together, cooperating together, and let's get rid of the flag, the anthem, Brussels, and all that has gone wrong."Comment

Just making an enquiry with them can put your claims up nowadays. Utter madness.
