door seals.
my old mk2 tour used to like like a bitch!
ended up taking up the carpets cos i didnt change the seals lol

Yep, front door seals (well, having said that, I only have front doors), I find they tend to leak around the bottom rear of the door in heavy rain, from my experience.

I told you! I had the same thing mate so im going hard core, had enough im getting some super sealent **** from the states, also you know the clips that you screw the door card onto?, they leak at the bottom thus allowing heaps of water in, its a small hole but man it crazy

The last Mk 2 i had used to puddle in the rear passenger foot well. I found it to be (and its quite common) the membrane behind the door driver door card, the water used to run down into the window slot, then come out of the bottom of the door card, then get under the carpet because the membrane was rotten and had holes in it.
It happpens to Corrado's as well.

You could just make a hole in the floor to let the water back out

... the membrane behind the door driver door card, the water used to run down into the window slot, then come out of the bottom of the door card, then get under the carpet because the membrane was rotten and had holes in it.

The membrane door liner must be intact and glued to the door all the way round each door. The membrane is usually broken if the central locking is repaired, or the window winder is repaired or the door itself is repaired.

Make sure there's no water on the front floors too. From the front floors, water can make its way to the back floors. If there's water in the front too, then that's almost certainly how you're getting water in the back. Water in the front could come from a leaking heater matrix, leaking heater hose, leaking air boxes.
