Default Classics, check those boot cavities

I know its a well known fault, but i usually check the area in the boot where the petrol cap is/bumper vent is for water, well, i only dried it out 2 weeks ago, washed the car today so did the check and found this, we only had the frost last nite LOL






So,worth checking !!

yeah, its around the filler cap on the inside, i used a sealant many yrs ago, looks like it has dried up/cracked and allowing water in again, also around the bumper vent, same time of sealant so probably dried up

for now, i just mop it up every few weeks if it rains LOL

I've become good friends with these type of things, during rainy season: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-2-3-4-In...item8013242922
