After 150K, so I reckon your car will be good.

The fuel filter is in the petrol tank and is non serviceable going from what Fred posted a little while ago

I believe that the fuel filter is ment to be a life time filter in the tank

The filter is a gauze cover over the pick up hole where the petrol goes into the bottom off the pump. You can take the pump out easily from under the rear seat squab, it is held in by a large threaded plastic collar. The gauze filter can be removed and cleaned. The big problem is when trying to screw down the plastic collar on re-assembly and getting the thread to screw on straight, don't attempt it unless absolutely necessary.

The car does have a filter, at least mine does, don't see it being different TBH. it is under the car, close to the tank in the right side. I chage it every 20,000km.
