    Default HELP! Bonnet Stuck

    Hi guys, i cant get my bonnet open as the lever inside the car doesnt appear to be working. Does anybody know how to open it without pulling the lever?

    I think you need someone to push down on the bonnet while you try the lever and you might be lucky

    Still might be worth holding down the bonnet whille you try the lever unless the cable has snapped
