Well that certainly stirred up some interesting replies,seems like these cits were born to be part aquatic.
Thanks for your replies everyone,put a smile on the face :lol: .I'll look into the door seals and the sunroof drain channels (forgot about that one).
Cheers...happy sailing.. :lol:

Found what I believe to be the cause of my water ingress.Upon looking at the rubber door seal, I found 'inside' the door seal joint, which is at the lowest point next to the carpet/flooring ,a 8mm Dia by 30mm flexible hose/pipe joiner :shock: It appears the previous owner had the same issue I'm currently having.
I'll get some silicone sealant to seal up the join and hopefully this will end my scuba diving activities (for a while) :wink:
