I had a leak in my boot where you keep your car jack, in the lockable cubby box, I Stripped out the side panels carpet ect, Got inside and had a friend use a hose around all door, window and light seals, Nothing.
I got the hosepipe underneath and hey presto, found the leak.

The cubby hole where you keep the jack, Where the water is collecting, It is sealed around the top where it sits in the car and what looks like electric contact spot welds, It was coming in from that seal, not obvious at first, but put hose underneath around top area of the cubby box.
I used Black roof and gutter sealer from Toolstation to seal the leak. Job done.

Hope this helps anyone with the same problem :)

Thanks for sharing. :) Had the same problem, after a look of searching I ended up with drilling a hole in the "cubby hole". ;) Problem solved Clarksson style. :)
