Although the three drain holes in the plastic panel don’t have any tubes attached, any water that enters them should eventually run out from the underside of the vehicle. I doubt there are any blockages but if you need to check under the plastic panel you should be able to do this by removing part of the rubber boot seal and the 2 plastic grommets (1 each side).

On the Jaguar website (link below) it gives information on climate control. Just input your vehicle model etc and select ‘Heating and ventilation’ then ‘climate control’.

I've also included a link from the Jaguar XE Forums entitled "Windows (interior) condensation problem". It's worth reading all the comments as the issue was resolved in the end.

Thanks for the further response and links, it seems the cause may be something easily resolved once identified as the problem.

I will look at the climate control details and see if it could be the cause, also the car is due a service in March so will raise with the dealer then.
