Leaky Citroen C1 - what's the cause?

I purchased a Citroen C1 a few months ago and recently discovered that the inside of the windows get very wet and even icy in cold weather. There are also signs of small bits of mould on the plastic and back seat. How can I find out what's wrong and then cure it?

You've got a leak. In a C1 it's usually through the hatchback seal.
