Is that to open the fuel cap manually? There was something similar on my P38 although that was in the side of the boot near the 12V socket. African Bush Junkie ... in London!

Mick, you should try reading the owners manual now that you have new specs

You get access to it by pushing down fairly hard on the plastic bit on the rear edge of the parcel shelf, and then easing it towards you.

Not ideal, I know, but gets you to the manual release cable.

I only know because I reread my manual after having the car for about 6 months.
