sounds like stat to me .. you can get the head gasket checked using a cylinder block crack testing kit,
dead easy check and any garage worth there while should have one...

Im just outside of north london, If your car is localish, I cant promise I can fix it, but for petrol im willing to come and have a look. Look over your pipes, check your stat and pump, and worse case do a compression test.
