Oh heck my bonnet won't open, guess I really should check the oil more than every 5 years.
The cable is solid, it's not the same one as I'm used to seeing. so time for some super slim arms either getting to the bonnet catch or removing the hinges

I solved the problem as follows:
I gained access to the inside of the dash, and by using the two bolts that mounted the bonnet catch, I judged where the cable would attach to the catch.
I drilled a hole small enough to get a thin rod through, and used the rod to lever the catch open.
I could've filled the hole and painted, but as it's so discrete I left it just in case, for future use.
