Silly question but I'm getting to know the car, when the side windows are misted with condensation on the outside in the mornings, with other cars when you lower the windows it clears the water on the outside, with the Monaro it leaves the water on the window, which means having to drive with the windows down for a couple of miles until they clear.
What do you think?

Gap between glass and rubber means water not cleared. Use a leathercloth or similar before you drive off, keep in self-seal plastic bag in glovebox.

If the water isn't cleared by the seal then surely there is potential for water to get into the door.

thats why you check the drain holes in the bottom of the door are kept clear! Same with every car on the road.

I agree, but most cars have seals which clear the water
