sounds like an early head gasket or your fan aint kicking in at right time to cool it down again but if the fan is coming on i would think about head gasket tbh when heaters are on it takes the heat away from the engine through heater matrix

You could risk blowing a head gasket by letting it run to 100 and see if the fan comes on. personally i would rather spend £12 on a gasket and THEN see if the problem persists, just to be safe. £12 is nothing
