Actually I think I am wrong, I think it''s only the boot release that won't operate [electrical] and covered by deadlocking. You are right the bonnet release can be opened but alarm sounds.
Will check tomorrow Dave

Have checked, the above is right so I was wrong I remember now, when I tried to operate the boot release with a rod through the door jam it would not work, just sounded alarm. I remember now that due to position of bonnet pull I could not get the right angle to pull it. If you do manage to pull it, it sets off alarm. Tried it this morning.
75s & ZTs are notoriously difficult to get into
