Thank you all for your help and support. I decided after calling my Mecanic that spending 2000 pounds on a head gasket without even being sure that this is the problem to do some work myself. On Monday, a friend of mine will come over and we will start trouble shouting: 1) check the water pump...

Thé problem is that i my overheating problem i lost something like 7 litres of coolant and now i need to fill it back up every time i drive and i rise in temperature immediately. So i do not know where to start investigating. The issue is that i cannot see any water leaking.
