I have just bought an '03 ignis with only 15000 mile on it. It has FSH but I've been told it doesn't have a timing belt.Is this correct?

No mention of the engine details, despite the 3 separate requests asking for it. Different engines across the range might have either a belt or chain.

If it's an M13A engine; it's a chain drive.
