Does the petrol-engined Dacia Sandero have a chain-cam engine?
I am trying to get information about chain cam engines in relation to the petrol-engined versions of the Dacia Sandero. In today's Telegraph you mention chain cam in relation to the Duster, but how does the Sandero fit into the chain cam picture?

The Renault 1.2 TCe 115 four in the Clio, Captur, Megane and Scenic is chain cam and so is the 0.9 TCe three as also used in the Sandero. The 1.5-litre diesel is belt cam.
