    Sounds like you may be better off rebuilding that engine. The oil consumption is way off, i.e. a healthy engine shouldn't burn mcuh, if any, oil.

    The most immediate problem sounds like a headgasket. It could have blown in between an oil passage and a coolant passage, thus explaining the mixing of oil and coolant. Check your oil, if it looks like a chocolate milkshake, then stop driving the car.
