If using water and overheating , pressure test cooling system to locate leak .If not an external leak and rad . / thermostat etc o.k , get a block test carried out in case head gasket gone and pressurising cooling system .

Just to add , if it tends to overheat in town / traffic , check fan is cutting in o.k .
