TIming belt or chain on a Civic?
I've just bought a Honda Civic diesel 2.2-litre 57-plate ES model. Is this car timing belt or chain and has it got a DPF?

I too once had a BMW Isetta. Mine had four wheels but the back two were close together which made it very difficult to avoid the potholes in unsurfaced roads.
