As the title says, some idiots tried to prize my door open and now it's not closing properly at the top, allowing small amounts of water to come in when driving. Does anyone have any ideas for a temporary fix, other than duct tape?

Cheers!

Stating the obvious, but don't forget to lower the window!
Had this on my youngest's 306 a couple of years ago. I bent it back & apart from a bit of a dent on the pillar it sealed OK. If yours won't then you might want to consider trying to find a replacement at either a breakers or one of the ebay breakers. If you're lucky you might find one the same colour.

I managed to bend it back a bit but I'm probably just going to buy a new door from a breakers.
