I have had the car for about 4 months, maybe a bit more. I opened the bonnet once or twice to show people the engine or to top the window washers up, tried to open it the other week to fill the washers up, but the button in the car wont open the bonnet, what can i do? It is so annoying, it is comical. Also the drivers seat is broken, cant adjust it

I'm no expert on modding I prefer a more subtle approach. I'd rather be fast than look fast. Forget the window washer fluid as well just stay at the lights and watch me disappear into the distance and maybe one of those window washer guys will do it for you.

Actually, i retract that statement, just read up on your car, very impressive. Doesn't really help me though

Get someone to pull the bonnet catch inside the car repeatidly whilst you push up & down on the bonnet, that normally works 
Once the bonnet is open you need to check the operation of the bonnet catch assembly, it may be seized up, penatrating oil normally does the trick whilst operating the bonnet release lever repatidly to free the mechanism off

im guessing its cable operated? have a look to see if the lever has come away from the cable under the steering rack (or wherever your bonnet pull is located)

AX_125 dazza and adam are probs right, in my old car the bonnet cable slipped out of the lever, wasnt a hard job to get it back on.
