Thanks for the reply , I will take some pics at dinner, I'll do my best to describe it . there is a wet patch underneath the drivers side wheel between the bottom arm and chassis , when I wiped it it looked more like old thick black oil residue or just grime , the oil that's on the floor is a Amber browny colour like engine oil and is very small about half the size as a 5p

Doesnt sound too bad mate. It could be either oil from the engine, or possibly brake fluid. If it is brake fluid, it needs changing as it shouldnt be that colour.  Best bet is to get the engine bay cleaned, making sure all electricals are covered. Use a good cleaner such as gunk. Much easier to spot the leaks source then. ;-)
