Yep. I can't see any reason not to.

I had a brief 5th gen ownership a few years back and it had no mechanical history and was 3 shades of blue but it was cheap and sure enough 2 months in the belt snapped.
I had a local mechanic come round and popped the cam cover to reveal half the belt snapped and other half intact,had me puzzled but the engine had stopped and no damage done,and yes it was replaced and quickly sold on.

Ownership was so brief the first Magic Tree freshner i put in still smelt good when it left :lol:
