If the coolant reservoir can not maintain the proper level of coolant, it is possible the engine could over heat when the level drops.

What would cause your celica gt4 st185 water bottle to bubble up after a journey it has enough coolant in and does not appear to be over heating but water bottle bubbles?

The "Water bottle" is designed to store the water that is boiling. When the water in the radiator gets hot, it boils, which then gets ejected into the bottle to cool, once the engine has cooled, the pressure causes it to be sucked back into the radiator thus restarting the process. Its perfectly normal for all cars, don't be alarmed.
