I had the same problem last month , I simply switched over the ignition coil and leads which fixed the problem. I've heard off a few mates that are mechanics its quite a common problem. Its a simple enough job to do yourself and the parts cost around £40 all in.

Hi thanks for your reply yes after googling for the last few hours it does seem to be a common problem will get a new coil and leads the weekend fingers crossed it will work cheers

I didn't notice any difference when it was raining although I did change mine after a couple of days but I did first get the problem after washing my car. To be on the safe side I would also check your spark plug hole to make sure no water has leaked in.
