You've got a leak somewhere

Finding out where it is, is easier than you think but it takes a bit of time. Completely dry your boot. Then get the garden hose out and see where the wet is coming from. On a relatively new car like yours, a likely culprit is an airvent in your boot...

water normally gets in around lights.

the above advice is perfect, just have someone looking in the boot from the backseats...
