This would indicate extreme crankcase pressure.
Either completely blocked breather system,
or badly worn bores/piston rings.
Try cleaning all the breather pipes out first as it costs nothing.
If it still does it get a compression test done,if this gives low results its not really worth fixing on a 1.2,a perfect excuse to put a bigger engine in!
