Are the Nissan Micra, Renault Clio and Ford Fusion chain cam or belt cam?

Can you please tell me which of these diesel engines come with cam belts and which with cam chains: Nissan Micra 1.5, Renault Clio 1.5 and Ford Fusion 1.4. I do about 4000 miles per year.

All these are belt cam. But if you only do 4000 miles a year a diesel is completely pointless. Micra petrol models are chain cam.
