Xsara overheating on start up?

After starting up and a few minutes of driving, my car temperature hits and lingers around 120. It doesn't seem to help when the fan kicks in..but things will suddenly return to normal about 5 minutes later and I'm able to continue driving normally. Why is this happening? My mechanic has changed the water pump, thermometer, and said there are 'no leaks'.

does it have the correct thermostat fitted? You may be able to get one which opens earlier.
