Sorry to read this mate. Exactly the same thing happened to me a couple of months ago:

I was lucky though and managed to grab the little fu*ker before he could get away. It may be worth you going down the same route I have: The Motor Insurance Bureau. They are a body that all insurance companies pay into and will pay out for accidents involving uninsured or untraced drivers. There is a £300 excess which you will have to pay but this may work out cheaper than claiming on your insurance by the time you have paid the insurance excess and future premium increases.

Hope this helps.
