Avensis Bonnet Catch Failed - Can't Open Bonnet - Toyota Owners Club - Toyota Forum
Actually, this worked (the Avensis link that is) !!! 'Course had to find a nice gentleman to push the bonnet down whilst I operated the Bonnet Release catch ...

Nicely filled up with oil now, was low .. but does need washer liquid too I noticed. Had none in the car at the time and, of course, won't work again without help. Is going to the garage tomorrow .. think the cable may need tightening.

Thank you everyone for your concern, advice and interest xx (Oh, and the saucy remark I received )
