I have checked those holes that you suggested and cant see any blokages, i found a puddle in my car this morning!

I cant see how it is going down my windows as the water isnt in my doors?

Maybe your rain rail drains (for the roof) are blocked up then.

The soft top drains are located eiher side of the roof just behind the seats. The drain tubes exit in front of the rear wheel wells.

ummmm, I think I may have mentioned something about that in the 4th post of the thread JBT. If the soft top drains are blocked then water may find it's way into the sills, cabin and or boot

You may very well have Garry.......just repeating this as no attempt seems to have been made to check them, he now has water inside the car and nobody seems to have mentioned where the soft top drains exit the car.
