Massive oil leak
I asked my son to move my 850 T5 yesterday but as soon as he switched ignition on the oil warning light came on and then the car dumped a load of oil onto my drive.
It wasn't showing any signs of leaking oil when it was sat parked. Can anyone shed any light on what has happened

Open the bonnet/jack the front up and have a look.
As a guess I would presume a failure of some sort on the oil cooler line(s). Hopefully your son switched the engine off straight away.
