If you are asking how to get rid of it then I assume your not really into bodywork? It's the sort of thing you could fix yourself if you were confident enough, but if not you'll have to contact a bodyshop and let them do it.

Doing it yourself would mean knocking the top down slightly with a hammer, filling the dent with filler and then painting it.

At a bodyshop I reckon you would be looking at £150 to repair that.

Just fill over it. We fill bigger dents than that on trains so will be ok. Otherwise if you cannot access that part in the boot cut out inside so you can get a hammer behind

I had a near identical dent. You could get behind it a little from the boot. But it depends exactly where it is because there's metal bits in the way

Ive seen a method of tacking a rivet to the bodywork and using a slide hammer to pull it but will be fine with filler that

Knock it out if poss, Fill it, smooth it over, mask to the lines where the qautre panels start, prime the filler and rub down deep scratches, repeat till bearly any left, fade the paint out over the primer (dont go right to the edges where you masked, otherwise you will see colour difference unless its a spot on match) then lacquer upto the masked lines by the qautre.
Good as new! (:
