I've bought a 03 plate DTI and found that even when under light acceleration/load it chucks out black smoke, when driving at night i'm able to generate a smokescreen to hide myself from the car behind, maybe it was an optional extra i'm not aware of?

It's done 123k with no SH so probably had a hard life, just wondering if there's anything I can check?
MAF? EGR?
Also on first start in the morning it takes a few cranks, glow plugs?
It could probably do with a good service.
