left my corsa c ( 7mths old) in car park at butlins friday and when i came back to it today rear passenger mat and area was soaked (a puddle of water) almost the same at the front, moved car and water came gushing down from the footwell.
never happened before, have fitted a sound system but didnt have to drill a hole to the battery to wire it all up, used an existing gromit.
why after 7 mths did this water suddenly come through, car is always left in the rain (though saturday was huge amount of rain)
and no, no windows were left open.
any advise why water is coming in?

brand new corsa c with climate control so no water round there. not on a hil either
where scuttle is on the water runs down here rather then across the engine bay and battery, so surely would just go onto the ground rather then into the inside of the car
warranty is what i would expect but vaux are cnuts and i would need a courtesy car also

the ultimate corsa advise bod never even opens his bonnot up
the water should run off the windscreen into the grooves where scuttle is and onto the floor, for some reason it gathered and went inside in a huge amount

ur g/fs private parts will not help on this occasion
anyone else have a view why a heavy build up of rain would leak through on a 6mth old new car
