Default car rolled down hill today :(

went to a car show today, had a good day etc then popped to my mates on the way home. I ended up getting my hands a little bit dirty and when i came out my car was rolling down the hill (been parked for 10 mins, but door was open) and my door hit a car and bent it all back so now need to repair it or get a new door

At least it didnt roll really fast and smash into a car coming down the road, or hit someone.

Could have been alot worse than a bent door! still a pisser though
