    Check you window seals sometimes they lift up at the edges,also check the rubber seal around where the door closes.

    my friends vtr does it on the passenger side as his is bent but i shouldnt have thought it would do that, check that the bolts holding the door onto the car are tight, if there not it may leave a small gap between seals maybe

    Mine does this, I've checked the seals and made sure nothing is bent and I can't find any gaps where it could be coming in. I just presumed that all saxos did it.

    They're very poorly sound proofed are our Saxos. You can take the door cards off and put sound deadening/insulation stuff in there to knock the road noise down by a few DB. The better the material, the more you'll pay.

    They've got good power to weight for a reason
