I bet it's dripping off the air-con condenser. If it's coolant, you will smell the anti-freeze.  ::)

It wont be off the aircon condenser as that is hot ! (its the evaporator thats cold)

Check the hoses to the rad for leaks and the drain plug at the base of the rad to.

Had similar mysterious drip of coolant from mine last year..ended up replacing the radiator and has cured it...expect it is a pin hole at the bottom...don,t be tempted to put rad seal in the system though.
