How would you fix this before it snaps completely leaving me possibly stranded somewhere?

The vehicle is a road legal buggy. It's a cable attached to the brake pedal but it doesn't actually operate the brakes. It disengages the gearbox when you press the brakes (so to avoid changing gear on the automatic gearbox while the car is still moving).

Anyone have any cheap fix ideas for frayed cable like these? A new part is quite expensive/difficult to find

thanks

Thanks all
Unfortunately I don’t have anything to solder with so I fear one of the temp fix eBay kits without solder might leave me stranded one day

I’ve given speedycables a call and they’ll be doing just the inner cable for about £15

Thanks
