Do you have a front plate?
I had an NB, and here front plate is mandatory. It's not easy to find a good place for it that doesn't restrict airflow to the radiator.
But unless your headgasket is gone, overheating should be easy to sort just by removing the thermostat, cleaning the cooling circuit making water run through it with a hose, and then fitting a new thermostat.
1.6 or 1.8 are quite a bulletproof engines
