Default Bonnet release?

My sisters got a Focus and I was going to have a look at the engine, but I can't find the Bonnet release.

Where is it?

Thanks.

There is't one.

You twist the ford badge on the front grill upwards to reveal a keyhole. Insert your ignition key to open the bonnet.

It works well at stopping people getting into the engine when they shouldn't..........you've just proven it works

Yes.

It's a loaner and I thought I'd have a look under the bonnet while my sister is over, I searched every where inside looking for the release, gave me flash backs of the Ka.

Love the engine, it goes really well.
