Volkswagen Golf leaking coolant and also oil

Leaks & Noises
my car is leaking coolant and oil.
the coolant is getting increasing more consistant. i nearly need to top up the water ever day. its getting rather annoying as the coolant check light comes on when you cant get stopped. the temp gauge stays half way.
oil is leaking also. not a huge amount but when taken to my mechanic he said it was due to the car being up in miles. it hasnt reached 110,000 yet so i dont think that is the problem.
any suggestions.

Get a coolant pressure test done to find leak and if still having problems , get a block test done .Might be worthwhile taking to another mechanic if that is his answer to the fault .
