will this polish out?

Obviously not... Delivery driver gave my car a little "rub" yesterday. Regular driver that picks up pallets from us, glad we joked about having enough space before he left. Only spotted in when putting fuel in last night. Going on their insurance, so I guess I can expect my insurance to go up next year having been involved in a claim. Oh joy. Anyway, most people I know will tell me it's only a car, so I thought I'd come to a more sympathetic crowd.

Sorry to see that

I wonder if he knew he'd done it? Sometimes you might not in a big van/truck...

He's a regular driver, we get on great with him. I'm pretty sure he didn't know. His truck has got quite a long overhang at the back, so he was probably oblivious until he got into work today. Accidents happen, I'm not mad at him. It'll get fixed, but I am a bit wary that the insurance process/companies could still have a sting in the tail.

Not nice...was the wheel completely untouched?

there's a graze on the bumper that went across the face of the wheel too. To be honest, the wheels are desperately in need of a refurb anyway. Mainly the previous owner I must add, but I took a good chunk out of the front passenger wheel getting on my new parking space. Might as well share a pic, as it's quite fun. Until there is a power cut of course.

Could your alignment have been effected too?

I doubt it, it really did "brush" across it. Feels absolutely fine. Though I will probably look to have it checked out when it goes to the garage.
