The Ceeds (and Hyundai i30 with the same engine) can smoke when idling immediately after a cold start. This is black or grey smoke caused by unburnt fuel, not blue caused by oil. My personal view is that a fouled injector(s) leak overnight and can give a substantial puff of smoke on starting. It is not glow plug related as these have been tested and OK on cars effected, and CR diesels don't need them to start cleanly at UK temperatures anyway.
