I was on private land for a public event. My car got stuck in mud. A marshall for the event towed us out of the mud by attaching the towing eye to the rear of the car and he then used his Land Rover. He then pulled the car out at such speed that control of the car was not possible and our car collided with another. He refused to give his name.

Details of registration numbers were taken and a note was left on the other car with our phone number.

This driver called the following day and we exchanged insurance details and it will now go through as a formal claim. My excess is £550. I traced the Land Rover driver the following day (its a small town) where he confirmed he had pulled us out. However he would not give us his insurance details. His brother then appeared (the car is his) and he still refused to give insurnace details stating his brother was uninsured and that we would have to claim against the event organisers.

I will try my best through my insurance company to recover my excess etc but where do I stand legally with the Land Rover driver?
