Is it white smoke? Is water pouring out of the exhaust? If so these are signs of a blown head gasket or a cracked head.

Thank you boot dog, yes the smoke is white and the oil looked funny when I checked it, do you know the best type of garage to take it? I'm fed up of being lied to by them, they tell you all kinds of things are wrong, when its nothing and now it's something they'll want more than the car's worth to fix it!

I can't really say which shop would be the best to take it to. What I would do is call around for a few different estimates and go with the one least expensive.
