Nothing major, I just have a little issue that when i wash my car and there is a steady flow of water on the roof, as it runs into the crease between the roof and the boot, the water leaks through the seal on the two top corners of the boot, onto my parcel shelf. So when I'm cleaning the front half i actually have the boot open so that it doesnt leak, it just runs down the ducts.

Its obviously due to the tubes holding the wiring that goes into the boot, one in each corner which must press the boot rim seal down to allow the liquid thorugh, but it obviously didnt do this out of the factory so something can surely be done. Anyone else have this problem? Cheers

has there been any work done to the boot ie has the boot ever been removed, as I had this problem and it was due to the fact, the boot hadn't been lined up proply, other thing are the rubbers in good nick

Not to my knowledge but it might have. And the rubber seals seem ok, the cars 7 years old though so it might be worth picking ome up from citroen

easy way of telling if boot not lined up proply, is have a look at another saxo, and if the top line is a little wider, and in some cases the bottom is abit closer than the other saxo then chances are its out, but could always be the rubbers
