it could be the black seal that runs around the boot its self the best thing to do is dry everything off and soak it with a hose pipe and see if u can see were the water is gettin in

Not sure about Clio's but on most cars the water gets in aroud the rear lights. Put somebody in the boot with a torch and spray the whole rear with a hose.

if youve got a sunroof, shut all the doors and windows and the air vents, and put the hose in the sunroof, wait till it fills up and see where the water leaks out!!

bit of a stupid question...but have you changed the tyre at any point..

i.e

have you put a wheel that has been "damp" into the spare wheel well..?

Try the two little round rubber seals about 6 inches up the boot frame (from the bottom)

On my old clio these worked loose, water would get drawn in them in really bad wet motorway spray and ended up with a puddle under my rear seats and a wet carpet in boot.

My first 172 boot was full of water, drained it and it never happened again?
