oops Ian, is the wing dented as well? Difficult to tell from that picture but at least the bumper seems to have taken most of the impact!

Where are you going to repair it, Chiswick?

Annoying.

It could have been a lot worse.

Told you all Audi drivers were bum bandits...

Get it the best body-shop available to sort it, no blame job there.

Nah, just fulfilling the stereotype!

Aside from a new bumper, the minor panel damage ought to hammer out OK. That's what I mean about being quite fortunate. Rear-enders can be very messy & I hate removal of rear 1/4 panels...
