Jodie,

you have a leak in the air con unit this is caused by cloggage in the pipe lines causing it to leak inside the car and not outside as designed too.

Im not sure on this one but a simple fix of regassing the unit and pipe works should clear this.

Best possible answer i can give you is take it to the ford garage get them to check it out free of charge to diagnose the problem.

If it is a simple re-gassing shouldn't be more then £55, you may need to shop around as your find different garages charge different prices.

hahaha yeah i'd be slightly worried if her leak was as bad as that!

Haha bad times! In my mates mx5 as long as you go above a certain speed then you can drive with the roof down in the rain and not get wet- really weird/ cool

there is a rubber pipe under the bit of plastic at the bottom of the windscreen it will be blocked with rubbish, you will need to get behind the engine and find it
