my wifes rover 214 started losing water. over a period of about 2 months upto losing 2 - 3 pints. was the water pump. get it fixed straight away as the head gasket will be next. my pump cost £20 and the garage charged me 2 1/2hrs x £60/hr labour - cos they had to remove timing belt! otherwise head gasket is £500!!! until you get it done top up with anti-freeze mixture not just water - like my misses did. especially in this weather.
