Hello,

Here is an image I have taken after seeing drips comming down. I dont know what it is. See the image attached. Any ideas what it is? the substance seems clear like water, and dries up leaves no mark. The pic has been taken from the front of the car

    If you want a simple car get a "Morris Minor" from the 1960s, If you are too young to know what one looks like, Google it, then I guess you would then prefer your Focus with all it's mod-cons; Modern cars are full of electronics and a nightmare to understand. :)
