the other leak from the sunroof which i had is the rubber seal around the glass water was getting passed the seal but was missing the gutters so was leaking in to car then when it condensed after a hot day on the metal parts i.e roof or doors this then runs in to the sills my car is a 2000 xreg hope this helps:thumb2
 
so far I've done each side at the back about 8-10mm wide. Noticed water is getting trapped on the drivers side, think the normal holes are blocked.

on the outer visible part, or inside underneath ?
 
Yeah, piccys needed! It'll be nice to have holes I've made instead of by the tin worm. :doh:
 
aren't the factory drains to front edge of rear arches enough?

on old t2 had quite a distinct wave action as water went back and
forth in off side sill. used a metal clothes hanger straightened out
to poke squared off hole. best to stand back or have wellies on at
this point.
 
My sunroof seal did exactly same as said earlier but it dripped on seats instead so possibly not your problem. Easy fix with black automotive sealer, ran nozzle from tube under the lip of the seal.

Have a good poke around too, my front wheel arch/inner wing rotted through on NS with similar effect as yours.

Also open front doors and look behind at bottom of wing with door open and you'll see a lot of crud built up, hose it out. Works wonders does that fix.
