hi all,

how does one open the bonnet on an elxr8 when the bonnet cable has broken?
any tips would be great.
thanks.

Where is the cable broken?

If at the handle or under the dash, you could pull on the cable with a pair of pliers.

If under the engine bay, then it is a bit more of a problem. On my EB I had to remove the bumper bar and then (with much difficulty) undo the bolts holding bonnet catch to the car, and then find a way to trigger the bonnet catch to release. I broke my bonnet catch in the process.

Good Luck
