Suffered from water coming into the cabin?
Mine was mainly on the nearside foot well. Whilst I accept the weekend provided extreme conditions if some suffered and others didn't why?

After reading on here about the rear screen leaking I checked mine when we got back and sure enough behind the passenger seat it was wet.
I just happened to have her booked in with Autoglass yesterday for a new screen. They popped out the back window and resealed it whilst I was there - job done
Apparently they said the glass hadn't been primed or sealed properly!

Second time I've heard this recently - mine also leaked behind the driver - perhaps all should be checked!

If only it was the rear window - most of the water in mine came in through the heater!

I've nearly finished bailing it out - I've had a fan heater going on it for two days solid and I think it'll be another few before it's dry.

I think that cars with the front splitter got wetter than those without.

Oh and anyone who went through after me got a puddle with at least three gallons less water in it!

Fun though - thanks Alex

Think I got off quite lightly as mine seemed to stay dry (ish!). Which is stange, as I definitely had water up to the windscreen at one point. I'm just glad we found another route back!

Me to, must be the M400 model, no water at all in mine, lucky I guess.

I may be sad, but I always have a De-Humidifier running in my Garage, I must admit that after Sunday's Antics, I left the doors, windows & clams open to help with the moisture removal.

I have the DEC21 which I can't fault (except I need to empty it once a day!).

Behind and in front of the drivers side mine was wet and the little pocket to the right of the drivers seat, but not up the pillars or the rear wall or directly under the seat or in the pedal area. It looked like it came up through the floor.

Ran a heater in the car for about 4hrs last night and it's now dry.

Mine was the same behind driver's seat and little pockets on both sides. I will get the rear window done soon. Anyone have any idea where the water comes into these pockets?? Wasn't too bad on Sunday - was worse after I jetwashed all the rubbish out of the clams etc yesterday. Only to have to plough through a flood again this morning on route to work. Got some surprised looks that I even attempted it in the Noble, but consider myself to be a seasoned flood crosser now after Sunday
