I've just got a Punto on the cheap to fix and make some money on...

But so far today it's built up quite a lot of condensation inside the car, could this be anything to do with the fact the head gasket needs doing on the car?

Pretty sure theres no dodgy seals on the doors or anything, what are my best ways of checking it all out? Cheers

Stick the windows down for a couple of hours and see if that sorts it.

Pollen filter most likely, as said. Less than a tenner from motor spares shop.

Pollen filters were an option on my car
Occasionally I get leaves blowing through.

My Corsa did this when I first bought it. Pollen filter changed and parking it in the garage overnight with a dehumidifier in it fixed it up
