And yet another difference in the way a car company builds vehicles country by country. I personally, find it interesting.

Here in The States, the Environmental Protection Agency, has our fuel so bastardized, I'm surprised they call it Gasoline. You need a chemical engineering degree just to understand it's molecular structure anymore. It's filtered and strained added to and removed from. Let's not forget E85. 85% ethanol. Ethanol absorbs water. Can't see a failure in that.

Anyhow, fuel filters have basically become a thing of the past. strainer on the fuel pump unit is about all we have and need.
