Can you get someone to push down on the bonnet while you pull the lever....might just help if cable is still OK

Did you get this sorted? Don't understand why it would just stop. I always dropped a bit of graphite grease on the latching mechanism at each service.

Yes managed with a bit of the old Brute force and ignorance..Clearly the cable hadn't broken, so I got my head in the footwell and gave the cable a pull with a pair of pliers, there was a bit of a click and it seemed to do the trick, One of the locks had seized a bit, I got plenty of oil on it it and it seems to be behaving now.
Cheers
