It sounds a bit funny but I think you were pretty lucky??
Could have easily grabbed a wheel and dragged the chassis leg or creased the roof.
Cold comfort but pretty easy repair.

(at least i called first refusal on the tech 1)

Right all the bits are swapped of the blue one on to the Alpina. but I'm short a few things. I need a pre face lift passenger side headlight and a drivers side fog light as the rustyscrews snapped into the housing and its nakerd. Trawled the local scrap yards and all i could find were face lift cars.
