Have you tried adjusting the 'pin' for the catch. It may be that it is simply not closing quite tightly enough.
THIS article ,although about the estate, may help.

had this problem on my car when i bought it, there is a micro switch clipped onto the lock catch in the bootlid and mine had simply unclipped, also controls the boot light. worth checking.

Most likely it's the wiring loom that goes into the boot lid at the right hand side hinge area.
The wires tend to fracture and fray after the boot has been opened and closed a few thousand times.
I bet your reversing lights don't work either
