Timing Belt or Timing Chain

[tron07]

Have not heard any timing chain failure with the euro, but there are few stories regarding 308 (overseas) with chains breaking before 70k km

^ My timing chain stretched.

Expensive. my euro was a fricken lemon untill 3k was poured in for mechanical repairs

they stretch prematurely if it's been poorly maintained, seen quiet a few on GM sourced Alfa V6's
