Probs a boost leak.

might be nervous, have you taken it to look at any new cars recently?

Guys even when it's just ticking over there is a lot of smoke and now the battery is dead as nelson!!!

Usual cause of black smoke is an inbalance of fuel and air. Could be a boost leak.

So check the boost hoses for splits

Where abouts is the boost hoses located ( not really engine savvy!!!)

Dodgy irish diesel.
Not all diesel over there is just diesel.

Sounds like burning oil, check the engine breather system, known to give trouble.
could be injector fault iirc they at known to cause smoke
