sounds to be going alright for you then, my brother got hit afew months ago in his civic. he was driving up our road and one house has a big dodge ram and on the other side was a parked van so my brother understandably slowed down, then the bint from the same house that owns the dodge reversed out and hit the side of him, it needed a new door and wing which sounds similar to yours but the woman tried to blame it on him! even though it was her who reversed out without looking. consider yourself lucky!
