Check radiator for cold spots if there are cold spots after car warmed then the rad is bad. We are in u.S so have no idea about parts there.

The head gaskets could be on wrong, or there is another more serious problem like a crack in head/block etc. Pressure check the cooling system for internal leaks. It may be a bad water pump as well.
