If you have a saloon check the rear storage bin on the drivers side in the boot - there is a vent in their that if covered may cause windows to mist up.  Remove blockage - job done  :y
Oo where?  I spilt a little water in the boot the other day but it does seem to be taking a long time to dry out fully.

In the bottom? like the crud entry hole on the other side under the spare? or a pipe?

No, its a black grill (or 2 grills, can't remember) - really obvious when you see it...

It is two black grills.  If you have a CD Changer, you will ideally need to slide this out of the carrier to get a better view.................

Been changing coolant in Rover (and rummaging through wheelie bin looking for some packaging I need). Been really nice here...

:-[Ah, I was thinking of a drain.  Those two vents that may have inadvertantly been obscured by something in a poly bag by the part time driver (me?).

Cleared.  Will see if the car dries out better now.
