Get as many photos as you can. Take some height measurements to show that it matches yours. Take the reg number.

Leave note on windscreen.

If you don't hear anything, ring your insurance.

Took Richwig's advice and left a very visible note - lets call it more a document - on the offending Mini windscreen.  I sealed it in a Parking Ticket see-through envelope I just happened to have. Whether anyone actually responds to this is anyone's guess.
If the situation becomes prolonged I may have to resort to other tactics.
Anyone know a forensic lab where I could have the paint left on my bumper matched to that on the Mini's?  (I'm serious!) 

Here's the note:
Hello owner of Red Mini LE04 @£$

Please see attached photos of the damage you inflicted to the rear of my Golf.

I'd appreciate a phone call to settle the matter; I've had one quote today from a reputable bodyshop and am getting another quote for the repair tomorrow.

My phone number is:

07973 @£$%^&

Many thanks

Paul

That's a pretty good letter and any decent person would surely respond.
I'd love to know if you recieve a reply , keep us posted  :happy2:

I'll certainly update this thread with any mutterings from down the road......
Here are the shots of the alleged culprit:



....and my bumper...



In a court of law probably not conclusive but the colour is bang on, the tell tale trail is much the same and the paint is freshly broken on the Mini and freshly smeared on my car. And it was parked directly behind mine when I returned from Paris on Monday.  Voila!!

Isn't that your silver paint on the mini aswell? Everything seem to match to me, hope you get somewhere with the owner of the mini.
