As I removed the spare tyre I noticed a nice pool of water in the bottom of the boot the rubber around the boot is in good nick so I was wondering if this is a common problem an whereelse it maybe getting in as everything looks clean an ok

Tubes usually fine. It's the rubber ends they fit into that usually block. Remove boot side trims and you can't miss them.

Had the same problem, and mine is a tintop. Rear light seals were the problem, and I believe the boot seal as well can cause problems.
