Giuliano,
Now I'm sure that I have a blown headgasket on my 92 900S myself, and I recall having the simptom trog pointed out: the coolant was leaking "somewhere" even overnight. Later on, I also realized the over-pressure in the system, but I didn't know why. And with the oil, while you may not see coolant at the bottom of the dipstick, you can check whether your oil level is higher than it was last time (check this in the morning, not after the car has been driven). Coolant has a bigger density than oil, so it gets to the bottom, and the oil comes higher on the dipstick.
