Don't feel badly. Many people don't realize it, but VW installs a large,
invisible, super-conducting magnet in the van/bus body at exactly the point
where you smacked the pole. Even using all of my fingers, and taking my
shoes off too, I can't count the number of VW vans I have seen with this
ding. Even my beloved first loaf (a 1976) was Christened by a good friend
as he approached the fuel pump at the station.

In reality, it is a common mistake of mis-negotiating the physics of
driving a cab-over vehicle. I get all confused when I drive my Westy for a
while, then hop in the Jetta. Of course, I don't run it  into things
though. :) Jus' kidding.

Best of luck,
