I finally nailed an annoying coolant drip that only occurred
when the engine was left cooling down, it turned out to be on
the top radiator hose, a quick smear of high temp silicon and
new jubilee clip now ok.
But while searching I noticed that the bottom hose was rubbing
against the nearside brake pipe and was down to the first layer of braid.
Easily bent out of the way and worth a check if you have a similar Roadster.
