The headlight seemed untouched, no airbags were deployed, I think even the engine did not turn off at the time of the crash. The car was basically stationary when it was hit by a van from the side.
So nothing really that bad. However it took until today that the car was repaired, because of arguing with insurance company and mostly due to lack of time of the mechanic at whom the car was parked the whole time.
He surely disconnected the battery when he replaced the door (airbag), but that was some time recently. I don't know whether the whole time the battery was connected or not (will ask). I know he moved the car several times during the summer.
Today the car was finally finished and we took it home. During the drive we spotted that the date shown on the iDrive screen was 30 April. And the clock was wrong.
How is that possible?
