I put fuel in it, watch the fuel gauge go down over time, then put some more in. All the cars I have owned seem to have had this problem, Is there a leak, is it my driving style?

Like Rolls Royce say, "If you need to ask, you can't afford it."

Get a grip mate, cost of ownership is a legitimate concern for any one buying a car, if not take a read of SSO's blog on EVO. F50, 430 scuderia, and an xjr15 in the garage and running costs still matter to him (or her).

However, if your just annoyed at the op's inability to use the search function, high horse away to your hearts content!

What you mean is it's a legitimate concern for some, not all, I don't see the point of MPG threads, unless somthing has gone drasticly wrong you aren't going to change anything, if you can't get in the car and enjoy it because you can't afford to fuel it, then you've bought the wrong car.
It's nothing to do with the search function or high horses, it's to do with the S2000 being a sports car with sports car MPG, insurence costs, road tax and parts cost. I get fed up with people who moan about all of those, you know they will be higher than a Corsa beacause it's not a Corsa, it's an S2000.
