Is it unlocked :question

Sure?

very ive already released the catch from inside so the boot is open

is the lock horizontal or vertical?
horizontal = locked & stays locked when the the rest of the central locking operates
vertical = boot locks & unlocks with the rest of the car.

Are you going to say the same thing about a pre - facelift estate?

Never had an estate, but can't see why it'd be different.
Why? 

We have had trouble with the estate, boot not unlocking with central locking.....Now I know why..... It has been a long time since I tried it, swmbo drives that car, I will have to check with her when she comes back in.....

Edit. Just checked with swmbo and the above would fit with some problems which have been as a result of not understanding the differing positions..ah well, you learn something every day....

Happened Mine and took me ages to figure it out. The spring in the handle was gone and not pressing up the lever far enough.
But I broke the spring myself by mistake.

Reason For it breaking was; Two wires coming from the boot were cut where the boot hinges. When these wires were cut the central locking does not open the boot properly and I pulled the lever and broke the spring. Take a look at them wires and check if they are ok.

problem solved removed the lock and handle wiggled the pin around and it fell off  new handle needed
