Take it to a professional specialist mechanic.

As others have said you need to get the car inspected by a mechanic or your trusted suzuki dealer. No one on here can diagnose a problem on a car they can't see. How muddy was this track you were on? Was the car covered in mud? Was the Radiatior full of mud? From your posts it sounds like you've overheated the engine but now its driving fine with no lights or warnings?

It was certainly the case in t'olden days that a car which had boiled its coolant, which wasn't unusual in hot weather when everything had a belt-driven fan, needed a top-up and all was usually fine. Alloy heads and blocks make it more risky but the 1.5 engine may well be tougher.
