A bit of a leak/drip?

I've noticed recently that there is a very small pool of liquid that appears underneath the car when parked. The area is around the middle of rear passenger compartment roughly, and the liquid is completely clear, like water.
Any ideas chaps? My first though was simple condensation from the air con, but it seems a strange place for it to be for that. Or does the rear air-con have it's own condensor etc?
Ta in advance.

Had something similar this summer. The condensate was running down the exhaust heat shield.
No idea if the same may be happening to yours.

Gave us some panicky moments, I can tell you, but then so did my 156 and GT when they peed all over their parking spaces

You mean 'absolutely Italian / Maserati normal' i.e. wholly unpredictable and may (or may not) be alright!

Lol!

No this one is predictable, especially on warmer days when the air conditioning is working. The condensation builds up and drains off under the car.

Or on your foot :) I particularly like that design quirk...

I appreciate that, it was more where it was in relation to the car ( ie middle of the rear seats)that got me thinking.Running down the exhaust shield prob explains it.
