Sadly not, I keep getting error Bad referrer - I've tried on 2 different phones.

I can send over WhatsApp or email?

Thanks tee_cee. Yeah I found the drainage holes, they are now much cleaner than they were though there's still room for improvement.

Have opted for a dehumidifier off Amazon that's arriving tomorrow so will see how that goes.

I couldn't upload the photo yesterday, not sure what's up with that. The bit where the pollen filter is? There's still water in there so I'm tentative to declare it fixed just yet.

Will try sealing the windscreen next just in case.

You say that, but I've got at least a couple of pints of water out with the microfibre towels method which is making it lighter and more manageable for me to handle.

Sadly I've also found a lot of rust bubbles under the driver's side, and after a rain shower I can see there's water in the bit above the scuttle so unsure I've solved the initial leak as yet.

Thank you, that's reassuring to hear - I shall investigate further

I've got a more urgent issue currently which is the footwells turning into a pond.

Have cleaned out the scuttles but there is so much water absorbed in that foam from the recent rain, I can't fathom how to get it out and dry given I can barely lift the side of the mat with all the weight.

Wondering if simply cutting it out in small pieces and starting from bare metal is the best course of action, or if that's overkill!

No signs of rust as yet in the areas I can see so it's possible this is the first time it's happened to this extent.

I'll do a fresh post in case others have input on the matting situation!

I've discovered the temperature gauge is yet another dial that doesn't work - it does show a lower temp but once it gets to just above 70 that's where it stays. Thankfully we didn't overheat but the coolant was bubbling loudly when I stopped...

I've been offered a MK2 dash, I'm guessing they don't fit the mk1 though?

So, I poked tissue in various places to see which bits got wet and discovered the sliding rails were the main culprit.

Took the door sliders off and found a crack in the seals, so have removed and replaced with CT1. I know there's still a bit coming in at the top, but this feels like a good start

No, the evidence only showed up from the door runner downwards..

It's not rained since I discovered the puddle (yesterday!) though perhaps a hosepipe will help things along.

I'm considering attacking the seam where the roof rack attaches with silicone sealant to cover that particular base. I'll add the top of the side panel to the list!!

Update on this - and damn, I missed the porn spam!

I found the website and it was £20 there rather than£25 - website overall looks solid if a little outdated (which can be a good sign as it's not likely to be genuine!)
Have chatted with the staff and feel confident it might solve my issue, so will hopefully be trying to fathom out the guidance over the next week or so.
If I don't do it their way I hope to have better awareness of the solution that will work for me. Will update!

Excellent! Those have the same gaps I have.

Thank you!!

Thank you both. Glad to hear the odometer isn't required.

It's a Y reg 1.9D

The coolant light is almost always on, despite the coolant system working fine. The previous owner said he could never get to the bottom of why it stayed on all the time.

The fuel gauge was permanently at this point for months, then started occasionally showing the correct level after an oil change - this has been happening 2-3 times per tank of fuel. Sometimes it stays for a while, sometimes it only stays for a minute or two.

Does this extra information give an indication of where to investigate first?
