Selves - from England (450 leaking coolant?)

Hello Everyone - just joined recently. I have a 2003 reg. MCC Smartcar Pure, which I've had for 3 years now. Having a few problems with the coolant level having to be topped-up regularly. Any ideas on cause of this, will be much appreciated. Thanks to All.

Look under the water pump and see if it is driping. The water pump is close to the alternator. You may not notice the leak because the antifreeze leaks and then never hit the ground to show a spot.
If you have any more questions use the 450 forum of this site that way more people will see the problem.
