How to release bonnet after accident damage.

I would be grateful if someone could PM me with some suggestions on how to release the bonnet on this D3 which I have just bought. I was told that the bonnet had been open as the battery had been disconnected at the auction.

The grille doesn't appear to be damaged from what I can see.

Get someone to apply pressure to lift the bonnet whilst you operate the release lever. Either that or try pressing down on the bonnet. Might work.
