could be the head gasket, check under the oil cap for any white sludge, this as an indication of head gasket faliure
you can also smell the water tank, if it smells of exhaust gas then thats another sign
just how much is it using?

He meant how much Water is it using, not how much is the car used, I think

Over what time scale? If your answers weren't so vague you'd get much better responses!

Check to see if lots of water is coming out the exhaust also.

Check for leaks first. You'll have to get the car up to temp and then look for drips, it's the most obvious port of call first of all...
