Hi out there had some probs with the coop but seem to have developed some more the car seems to pull pretty violently to the right on heavy breaking anyone else had this. Also The black tank on the right hand side of the coolant tank is leaking oil i think its running down the sides not lots but enough and ideas guys.

The black tank is the reservoir for the PAS (power assisted steering) fluid, could have been over filled. Did you have any probs with the steering, you said you had a few thing sorted out already?
As to the Pulling when Braking sharply, sounds like a sticky brake calliper, ok on slow braking but not reacting fast enough on quick braking.

Looks like another visit to the dealers

you could always look on the bright side, There'll wash your car for you (saves you doing it)
