On my old VW Jetta you had to push Down on the shifter to get it into Reverse (it was right next to 1st) but the bushing were so screwed up that you had to pull it into 2nd and quickly throw it into 1st so it was fairly easy to throw it into Reverse with out intending to. The good thing about Reverse though was the fact that it didn't go forward as far as first so it was pretty easy to tell the diff. Another thing was 1st was only used to get the car rolling so I didn't have to worry about going into reverse while the car was rolling. How's the shift pattern on your 240D look like??
I dunno how that story helps but I figured I'd throw it out.
Wait, I remembered why I posted this!!
Just pay attention to what gear your in before letting the clutch back out (shouldn't be hard once your use to the way the gears feel) and you'll be fine.
