I've topped it up a fair few times Ant. Then Saturday before driving up to my dads topped it up to max again, done a lot of driving and today it's below half.
Could it be leaking only when hot?
I haven't really looked for any leaks yet, just wanted to know if there was anywhere common worth...
So, my car's always used a bit of water, but the amount was rather insignificant. (Just needed a top up every 4-6 months or so)
Did a coolant change with a member off of here (flushed from bottom rad hose and changed thermostat) since then, I'm losing a fair bit of water, I mean I went from...

I've changed the clutch, had the belts done on time, done basic servicing at the correct intervals and changed the engine mounts, that's about it.
There are some cheap ones, but even the good ones aren't a lot of money, and a well looked after...
You don't need to upgrade at all. XP is superior for the more advanced user. It can be stripped right back to a bare OS and not use too much memory. Lovely.
