Good news!

Had a look at the large dent in door today. Took door card off and the dent pushed straight out!

There is still a couple of smaller dents at the top which I have taken photo's of although you'll appreciate taking photos like this is not easy.

The dent is aligned with the reflection of the curb to make it easier to see. (2nd pic) Trying to be as honest as possible. You wouldn't know it was a big dent though!

Put it on ebay mate, much wider audience to see it.... I put mine up a day ago and theres already 60 folk watching it and around 700 page views, you'll do better on there.

great looking, fab colour and spec you should get a decent price.
I'd keep it and get an LPG rather than a 330d. If you search for 330d repair you'll find many, many expensive problems from 'swirl flaps', plastic water pumps impelers, fuel pumps, failed turbos, even to fundermentals like the dodgy GM autobox they fitted upto 2005 - vectra gearboxes just can't take the power, they're a heap of trouble.

Thanks for the advise. I had heard the earlier 330d could be problematic.
