Rob - could be any number of things.

Head gasket is probobly last thing to check. Look for actual water loss, in particular look for crystals of dried coolant on the hoses and other places. Check youa rent loosing coolant as steam someplace.

Is the bottle pressurised when you take the cap off?
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.
