Hi Solomon,

It depends. Have you serviced the car lately? Have you had the radiator inspected or have you made sure that the coolant levels are topped up  properly? The 75 does have a reputation for having faulty inlet manifolds that can cause overheating and head gasket failure, but regular maintenance can help you sidestep these issues.
