Whats the bonnet popper pull handle thing in RHS of the Fezz engine bay do?

I assume you mean LHS?

I meant to comment on it when I put up the photo. It's the fuel filler flap release handle. When you want to fill up, you have to pop the bonnet/boot/back bonnet/venetian blind(?) to access the filler release handle. :D

Those ridiculously wide doors on the Fez are to mask some sort of cooling system gubbins from what I've read.

 

You should go pick up that sheila from The Bachelor NZ in it. She's on the rebound and would probably swoon.

Does anyone know of other ways to get to drive on a snow/ice proving ground thing? Ideally for about a tenth of the price of the AM one? Haha.

I used to work up there, no easy way without $$$ but skifield car parks after hours....... :)

Tried to make the door work this afternoon. It's so handy being able to access so much of the door innards by taking off the strakes. Slightly alarming how little side-impact protection there is though.

Oh man, I feel like a moran. There's actually a switch in the centre console to open the fuel filler flap. This thing is just a back up. There's also a backup boot release pull cord in the fuel filler cavity.
