Suzuki Swift 1.5 cambelt or chain?

My step-daughter, based in Scotland while I live in Norfolk, has put a deposit onto a 2008 Suzuki Swift 1.5GLX. I didn't have chance to look at the car's specifications when talking through what she should look for so mentioned that the cambelt should be changed. Which, having looked at your review may have been incorrect advice.

Can you confirm that this model has chain driven cams?
