Coolant temperature sensor on it's way or gone. I bet it drives just fine once it's warmed up.

If you do a search "coolant sensor", then you'll eventually stumble across a thread with pics of where the sensor is located.
Early cars have it located between turbo and intercooler, on the rear of the coolant crossover pipe. Right next to it is the smaller temp gauge sensor - the CTS is the larger terracotta/brass sensor...
