Having never driven Herman in such wet weather before ;
I find a pretty damp driver's footwell- this is a non sunroof car.
Are there obvious drains in the scuttle that I should look to clear out- or is it a case of new door rubbers both of which have some cracks?

Re: damp in footwell
Here are a couple of options:
- rusted corner behind the front wheels (pull carpet for a check)
- inside a-pillars through the doors wiring loom hole
- plastic behind the doorcards ripped or missing
- front windscreen seal
If you can't find a clear source I'd pull the carpet aside and see where you find traces after more water

Re: damp in footwell
My money would be on the windscreen seal, but the others are alot easier to check out, so start there!
