I have noticed a few oil spots on the garage floor and think the V8 has a small leak. I read on AMOC forum (from a US owner I think) that this may be an issue that needs doing under warranty.

Anyone in the UK had this problem - are the UK dealers aware of this?

Car still awesome by the way. Fuse 22 is history and parcel shelf gone. I actually like following my girlfriend while she is driving it just to see what sort of a stir it causes - sad I know.

yes - my car had a small one that was fixed under warranty - it was a dodgy seal

Mine has a very small leak nearside front. I had it on the ramp last weekend to take a look and it appears to be coming from the oil pipe connections on the nearside front. Its booked into the dealer to fix and thay stated that its either the oil pipes n/s front or timing cover. Will advise once fixed.
