Trikey,

You're a doll! I met with one of the club's members (SD1Too) today He checked a number of things, and Yes it does appear to be an airlock in the cooling system. SD1Too used the Trip Screen Diagnostics that T-Cut spoke of above, and deduced that even in this cold weather, cooling of engine is not efficient. My Rover's temperature fluctuated, the highest being 105. After allowing car to cool and removing rad cap, there was fizzing and overflow of coolant.

Garage clearly did not follow correct procedure, probably desperate to get payment and send me on my way.

I will make contact with the blighters tomorrow.
