have you tried pressing the mythical button, under the dash near where you left knee would go.
apologies if you already have and i'm stating the obvious

I have to agree with this - you WILL have a button under the dash - above where you left knee (which I would bet money is the culprit here) would normally be whilst driving.
It will look and feel like the boot release button.
I'd pop out with a torch and double check.
Switch on the ignition and press anything down there that fits our descriptions - I bet you get a result
Well bugger me with a fishfork ! Your right about
that switch, only had the car a month or so but
never noticed it. Still got two mysterious buttons
though. A small push button behind the wiper delay
switch that does not latch and doesn't seem to do
anything and a large thumb size button on the right
hand side of the cowl that I can hear clicking a relay
but not doing anything as I can see either?

That'd be the boot release - well it is on mine

Boot release is usually under the dash on rhs - next to the bonnet catch. It could have been moved though...........

Definately a button under LHS. The one under the steering cowl is to increase/decrease the intermittent wiper delay. Hope you find it.
Mine is more of a rotary knob. It changes the pause length for the intermittent wipe but not by much and so I hardly ever use it. I often wondered if there was a way to get a biiger range to make this function more useful.
For more quirks: Whilst I had the top of the dash off I replaced some failed bulbs in the instrument panel and found that for the tacho and speedo these had little green sleeves over the bulbs but none of the rest did. I have mint dial faces. Maybe explains why the these dials appear dimmer than the rest.
