Ok, I must be missing something here but I can't seem to find the opener for the front bonnet on my latest purchase. It's not the 'fixed' cover that is over the engine, I'm talking about the one that you should be able to easily open in order to check the levels and top up as necessary. Please help.....

The centre catch on the service bonnet needs releasing (button and then pull catch on the RH side of the main bonnet - if you put your hand down the scoop you should be able to feel this). The two sides just pull out. Very easy to do once you know how, although I'm not sure I've described it very well. Where are you? These things are always easier to demonstrate...

I'm in Buckinghamshire, but thanks to your good instructions I have now managed to get it open!
