ford galaxy brake fluid bottle?

i have just bought a 1998 galaxy 2.8 v6 ghia and cannot find the brake fluid bottle under the bonnet, does anyone know where it is hidden, the reason i am looking for it is that i have fluid leaking from the cylinder behind the brake peddal

Hi Steve

I have just replaced the rear discs on my 2001 version of the same car and lost a bit of fluid when I was winding the pistons back in. You have to remove the engine covers and the air filter cover to get access to the reservoir and then use a tube to pour fluid in. I hate the design of these bl@@dy MPVs the engine is completely inaccessible!
