Thanks @RAB - silly me, thought fuel / exhaust / cooling just referred to the powertrain!
OK word back from the garage:
"Hi David, looked at the A2 -it's the condenser that's leaking out of a crack in the ali housing. Could get the part and replace it for you on Tuesday, will drop the car back in the meanwhile today so you've got it for the weekend then collect again on Monday evening".
Speaking with him, we agreed that as the car is apart it makes sense to replace the dryer at the same time so then all major components in the engine bay within the AC circuit are then in first class condition. It's going to be a big bill but then I can forget about it for a few years (hopefully!).
So after hijacking it, I'll now hand this thread back to the OP!!
