A vehicle (1) having a mid- or rear-mounted engine within an engine bay, the vehicle comprising an air inlet vent (25, 26, 27, 28) arranged to receive, in use, a flow of air heated by the engine; an air outlet vent (21, 22) arranged to provide, in use, an outlet for the flow of air heated by the engine, the air outlet vent (21, 22) being arranged to be positioned further forwards, and higher, in the vehicle than the air inlet vent (25, 26, 27, 28) so that, in use, air flow from the air inlet vent (25, 26, 27, 28) to the air outlet vent (21, 22) is from a relatively rearward part of the vehicle to a relatively forward part of the vehicle. A water collection arrangement (23) is arranged, in part, below the air outlet vent (21, 22) for collection of water entering the vehicle through the air outlet vent (21, 22).
