sounds like the clutch master cylinder
check the fluid level ASAP!
also check the brake fluid level, the leak could be just spreading from the there

[flash42]

the clutch fluid level is ok, will check the break level tomorrow.

if its running down the clutch pedal its the clutch master cylinder.

time for a new one or rubbers.

[flash42]

is it a difficult or expensive job?

Replacing a Defender clutch master cylinder . The price will vary on what make of cylinder you buy.

And this sounds rather bizarre - but if your going to the garage to get it done, get them to change the slave cylinder too.

I ignored this advice (well you would wouldnt you :) ) and sure enough, a week later the slave went.

You got to love em.
