ok after 3 months messing about ive finally found the little B&*%$£D
if you have water in the boot i will put money on it being here. or even water in the footwells.
OK - remove rear bumper
and then check the corners arrowed here. you can see the bloody hole. well there was genuine seal here from factory new but over time it goes hard and starts to piss water past into your boot
