Bear with me please, this is somewhat embarrassing, I've just bought the above Honda, it's a semi automatic, fisrt registered start of 2013. I've worked out most things, but not the 'handbrake' ---- how to apply a brake when the vehicle is 'parked'
It must have something to do with a little black lever which is part of the left hand lever assy, help appreciated, before it rolls off

Pull left brake hard and with other hand push lever forward and slowly release brake. It should now hold the brake lever in. To release simply pull left brake and release.

 

Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a try the weekend, certainly makes sense, I knew it had to be some combination of those levers
