OK, so it's not the head gasket or radiator. The most vulnerable places are the radiator hoses and fasteners. and also check leakage from the water pump. At that point I would be out of ideas

At that point I would be out of ideas There is also the thermoswitch. I would suggest parking the car up on a clean surface and seeing where the coolant is leaking. If you have a garage put newspaper down and see where it gets spotted/ wet from the coolant. Don't want to be too rude but get rid of the car if you can. My missus had one and needed fixing the entire time. Particularly electrics.
