Everyone will prob say its head gasket, which it could possibly be (check if your losing water) but before you go ahead on that, i had my carb cleaned by the garage and it bellowed white smoke for ages, a good run down the motorway cleaned or burnt it off, worth a try especially if you have done some service to the engine, hope this helps.
