Hi Guys,

I opened it !!! .... I started to dismantel the plastic lever inside the car, and I realise that the tubular plastic part that holds the end outercable had broken, so basicly when I was pulling the handle the cable was complitly lose, I hold the end cable with a pair of long pliers and pull the handle and it open straight away, I am not sure if I would order a new handle, I will try and repair it by fixing a metal plate and try and make it stronger, I also found that the emergency cable was cut and there was not even one for the rear hood so that would be my next jobs.

thanks for everyone comments and help, really appreciate !!! this forum is great !!

Thanks guys! I was able to remove the driver side reflector and access the cable with a coat hanger. My cable was pretty rusty so a little bit of spray lubricant helped.
