Many people have had trouble with leaking boots or trunks on S type Jaguars, well I seem to have hit on a cheap and apparently very effective cure and it is simply spraying silicone on your rubber! No, not that rubber!! I bought some silicone to cure a sticky passenger door and it worked so I thought I'd spray the boot seal rubber. The net result was an easier opening boot and inspite of torrential rain, a leak free trunk! Give it a go, costs very little and has worked for me.
