Thanks all for your replies. The alleged incident occurred during our time abroad.
Car was parked on the street near our flat.
Our insurance company only said they were contacted by another insurance about this, and we denied involvement. They said they are now waiting for the other insurance to disclose proof of our car’s involvement.
We will send the info to the police and proof of flights (we have asked the airline for additional proof that we boarded the flights, and we have pictures abroad on the day of the alleged incident).
I don’t think the date is incorrect because the police and the insurance company have reported the same date.

Thank you again for your help. Definitely one of the options mentioned happened, we just hope to be able to prove that our car was not involved - we can prove that we were not, but without CCTV I’m not sure how to prove our car was were we think it was.

If there was damage to a parked car, the owner might have simply guessed at the time/date/location based on when they noticed it.
I am responsible for the accuracy of the information I post, not your ability to comprehend it.

Although I'd hope if it was a date thing that the OP and/or a partner would remember a similar event that had happened prior to this in the same location. The mention of 'the only thing that had changed' when talking about the wing mirror cover missing would suggest not though.

@Dfsd9 - just to confirm, no damage had happened to the car before you went away?

As previously stated, the damage happened to the car while we were abroad.

You need to be quite clear in your response to the police to avoid a "Failing to Furnish" charge, or at least being able to defend it if accused. You should state that as far as you know, there was no one driving the car at the time/place stated, you were on holiday (with proof), no one had access to the keys, and the car was in exactly the same place on the street (say where) when you returned as it was when you left (assuming that's the case). Don't speculate on what may have happened.

Thanks, I’ll try to be as clear as possible.
