Unsure whether to make insurance claim

Daisy_84

Unfortunately I managed to scrape my car and cause a huge dent across the two doors when turned into the carpark and was too close to the boulder. I went to a bodyworks place and they quoted around £1500 to fix my car. It's a 2014 Polo valued at 4000k. I am wondering whether to make an insurance claim instead which I guess will raise my premiums.

An insurance company will always ask whether you've had any accidents. Not whether you've made any claims. Failure to disclose material facts isn't advisable.

Up to you if you claim or not. Will your insurance increase by £1500?
