This MX5 has a number of leaks, the first is a leaking door membrane, which is fairly normal for any model of car about this age.
The second is caused by blocked drainage holes underneath the convertible roof, which is fairly normal for cabriolets. There's also a leak from a clip behind the bumper, which is letting water into the boot and filling up the spare wheel compartment.
Solution: We will replace both door membranes with new ones. The gutters and drainage for the cabriolet hood will be cleaned and all the rubbers will be cleaned and refurbished. The leaking clip behind the back bumper is probably best just sealed, although we will take the back bumper off and investigate further
When all leaks are fixed, (and there are a couple more shown in part two of this video) the car will be dried.
