Though if there is indeed a drainage system chances are that other than the hole the rest of the system may be gunged up...?

I guess it takes time to resolve teething issues with a hand built car.

My mid 80`s +8 seems to have been reasonably water proof, even in the worst of weather over the years, so it should be possible to sort it out..?

BTW many a Porsche convertible leaks water even to the extent of destroying under-seat located ECU`s... EXPENSIVE..!



Good luck.

Yes the other side has a hole which is only partially blocked with silicone. I’ve cleared them out so will see how it goes. Pretty soaked in there. I have a particular hatred for water ingress.

Yes we have a 964 here which pools up under the bonnet. Dangerous under there as you say.

Aero leaks like a sieve too, not sure I can stop that.

Etype leaks through the door panels despite going to great lengths with carefully constructed membrane etc.

I give up now
