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?

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...
