Default Severe condensation in boot around drivers side rear wheel arch....please help!!

as above and also around the rear drivers side strut mount area coming down the back of the seat directly below the strut mount. i had my car cover on last night so i dont think its a leak. it does get quite wet down the side of my boot where the vents are.

i am loosing my patience slowly i have had enough of smelling damp.

anyone had this problem or could give me some help.

ive sealed my spoiler, my rear window, my rear lights dont look to be leaking (i have done the hose pipe test), i have a new boot seal and im running out of ideas.

can anyone help??

my car is an MY00 classic impreza.

cheers

Zen

Ive got the same problem with a MY00 classic shape impreza, 1 question is do you park on a slight hill with you car facing upwards, as i have the same problem i park on my drive which is a slope and when it rains where the boot is the sides fill up and overflow then the water goes down the sides and into my boot, so everytime i park on my drive theres loads of water sitting where my spare wheel is and my boot is soaking, Also if it is the problem dont park backwards as your drivers side footwell will be soaked along with your carpets. Hope this helps.
