2000 Celica GT leaking coolant

Topic starter

Hello everyone! 

I recently bought a 2000 Toyota Celica Gt, 1ZZ-FE engine, 143 HP, 6 speed manual edition.
In the past 3 months I noticed it's steadily leaking coolant, however. 
I checked while it was hot and cold, and found <i>no trace</i> of leaks around the coolant tank, or the hoses connected to it. They're dry from all angles.
There is no puddle underneath the car when I move it from the place it was parked.

As to how much it uses, I'd say about 1 liter for every 100-150km (60-90 miles).

I took it to a mechanic a bit ago, they did a pressure test and inspected the coolant tank, but found nothing.

Any ideas on what this could be, or how I could more accurately try to pin down the location of the leak? 

I'd appreciate any information.
Thank you in advance!

Do you know when the water pump was last changed?

If ur water pump is starting to go out it could leak just a little bit while you drive for months before breaking.
