Are the fans coming on? is there enough water in the system? are you losing water? right amount of oil?

Mine used to overheat but that was with no fans and after a while waiting in traffic at the dartford crossing.

Temporary solution... put the windows down and put the inside heater on max! If youre not going anywhere then turn the engine off. If you do start moving best to leave it in first for a while to make sure you circulate the water so you dont get any hot spots.
