Default Under bonnet fuel pump?

Hi.
Can anyone tell me if the face-lift model CDT saloon has an under bonnet fuel pump. Mine is a 2004.
Cheers
Dave

Most but not all face lifts do not have a UBP.

cool. Just a little confused by the double negative. Does that mean that some and some don't or that most don't?

The first facelifts had an underbonnet pump the later ones didn't

Hope that helps

If you have the said car, have a look underthe bonnet, on the nearside by the battery, you will see it by the fuel filter.

Default Definitely help needed

Thanks everyone, for your advice. I now have the car back home and it does indeed have an UBP. I have checked various things after getting loads of advice from Big Russ (thanks btw).
It would appear that the UBP does work but only for a short time, maybe a few seconds to a minute. The car will start during that time. The fuse then blows and stops the engine after which the "out of fuel" light comes on and the hazards operate. I have checked and changed the relays around (which are oddly all the same)
Does anyone know other reasons why the fuse would blow?
Thanks
Dave

Seems like you need a new UBP.--
