After having been out for a blast yesterday I noticed a small dark patch on the drive just under the front splitter (nearside). Looking under the car there was a dark patch on the splitter underside-directly underneath the screen wash filler cap (approx 10cm across). It isn't oil as its far to thin, and it isn't coolant as its a little to oily. After much deliberation and lying under the front of the car with the engine running I couldn't see anything leaking, and there is nothing in the front section to leak other than the radiator. I am beginning to think something splahed up onto the underside of the splitter. Anyone got any other ideas?

Thanks Koen, I'll get Castle to have a look next week. It does have a strange smell, so it may be coolant (although I thought it was a little to oily to be coolant).

I haven't noticed any water leaks since my original posting. Michael at Castle said it was probably condensate run off from the aircon (even though I don't use it that often)
