Default Loss of power after 10 miles

Good morning,
I'm new to this forum so please forgive if I'm repeating old stuff.
I bought a V50 2.0D (2006) yesterday and all was fine for a bit then it started losing power.
It runs fine for 10 miles or more and pulls superbly (there is a slight whistle when accelerating and a 'whoosh' when you change gear). After this it feels as if the turbo is not there as it is really sluggish and wouldn't pull the skin of a rice pudding, and no whistling or whooshing!!
If you stop, turn off the ignition all is great again for another 10 or so miles, so I don't think it's temperature issue more a electrical/sensor but don't know where to start.
Thanks in advance
