Yes. See: www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/legal--motoring-advice/2.../ A catalytic converter fitted as original equipment but later removed is also a reason for failure.

Compact yet can house seven people. Rearmost seats fold into floor. More versatile mid-row seating than previous model. Excellent diesel auto.
