I have a Rover 75 cdti auto diesel. 53. I carried out Jules,s mod some years ago and all has been ok. I "sorned" the car early this year due to ill health. I left it unlocked and bonnet openunder cover to facilitate easy access to trickle charge it and check the tyres. today I cannot get the bonnet to close. It goes through the safety hook but wii not access the two holes with the springs all the way. On Jules advice I sprayed WD40 into them and also some release oil to no avail so far . I am too old now to dismantle the front of the car (85) and there are no specailists in s. Wales. Any ideas will be welcome, many thanks, Chas.
