Couldn't he have shunted the Vauxshoite or the crappy honda either side of you instead. Hope you got his details. Judging by how much your car has moved he must've given it a fair old whack!

he hit the car to the left aswell it was a volvo estate not a vauxhall, he smashed that back window and dented the rear quarter panel on that. missed the honda which my mate was happy about as it was his and he can't believe how close it must have been to his if he hit mine...

Boot: 300
Bumper: 300
Spoiler: 800

Had the same thing with a delivery driver gently reversing into mine in 2003. Luckily, a colleague was walking towards my car and shouted/pointed at the driver who stopped then was going to drive off !!! Colleague stood in front and "suggested" he report to reception etc, which he did. I got away with a dented bonnet. But got a front end respray, which got rid off all my stone chips - so well pleased in the end !

Hope yours works out as well.
