It could be a hose loose from the radiator a loose cap on the radiator or a busted hose. It could also be a hole in your over flow tank but most likly its a leak in your radiator. I dont know how much it will cost but the labor is likly to me more expensive then the parts. Good luck with that

Other than the radiator, it could be a bad hose or a cracked block or the connector to the heater. First check the hoses to make sure that they are OK and that they are not the cause as they would be the easier thing to fix. Then check the radiator and on from there.Water pump may have an O ring that shrinks with age and leaks around it after car is heated up leading to a need for a new water pump if it is like my 1995 mitsubishi expo.
If this is the case, it will only leak antifreeze on the ground a lot after you drive it, but not so much while parked overnight or parked for several days. It cost about $600 to repair it due to the fact that you might as well get the timing belt done at the same time and maybe some drive belts if cracked.
Another scenario would be like the 1995 Ford Tempo I had before that, where no antifreeze leaked on the ground, but instead the car was eating antifreeze and oil, due to some sort of engine crack (in the cylinder head?) and the antifreeze actually gets into the oil and it all gets burnt up in the engine and picked up by the catalytic converter as it goes out (so you don't necessarily see it burning oil in the exhaust).
Then, if you don't keep putting water with antifreeze and oil in the car (not together, but in the right compartments), well then you get an engine with no coolant and no oil which leads to the engine throwing a piston, a hellish loud noise with everyone looking, no car movement and calling the junk yard to pick up your car.
being a fiat this will be a cylinder head gasket, also check the oil hasnt gone a creamey brown as for price £300-450.
