Bonnet was secure prior to the start of the trip so don't know if it was wind pressure or the body had flexed allowing catch to undo - but will be fitting a bonnet belt as I jumped out of my skin.

Anybody else experienced the bonnet opening under speed.


Yes.... I made a post about this recently. Over a certain speed, a high speed, the bonnet on my Roadster started to lift - despite the latches being in place.
