Default Ford Focus 1.4 Timing Belt

Just bought a runabout Y registered Ford Focus 1.4 and I was wondering if these cars have a timing belt or a timing chain on them and if it is a belt, at what mileage do they get changed at?

1.4 zetec is a timing belt & is to be changed every 60,000 miles. I work in a ford main dealer & the info is from the blue oval handbook. Hope this helps

Ford's reccomendation is 100K or 10 years, however in practice no one ever does so!
