Every time I close the bonnet I hear this weird click. Is that normal, because it sounds like it's breaking.

perfectly normal.. if you don't here a click then your in trouble... I thinks its cool that your meant to slam then thing shut.. your dealer should have gone over this at the store. the click is the double bonnet locks clicking into place, when you look under the hood you can see the hooks and the spring that locks them in. now if the click is going on while your driving then you make have a problem otherwise it is normal.
