My boot is soaking and so is the passenger rear footwell. Just wondering if anyone knows if there are any common areas where these let water in? It's getting a bit annoying and I can seem to source where it's getting in from!

I couldn't see anything all I've got is a bit of paint missing on the arch but no rust or holes that I can see....
Sorry I never noticed the link...when it stops raining I'll go exploring

Door deals? Not sure how that would make the boot wet though!

Tailgate seal or rear light seals are more likely to make the boot wet lol...
Unlikely to be rear arch rust as the OP has a ph3 hatch.

I wouldnt rule arch rust out of any 306 these days. My 02 estate had it, and it had liners until i did the arch work.

I too would say rust on rear arch. Both my estates had it, my ph1 5dr had it and now my 3 door d turbo has the first signs of it.

I agree with Tom, probably rear light seals.
