Does the Mini have a fuel filter?

I have the Haynes manual, and no where in it is a fuel filter mentioned. I see that some of the suppliers have a filter that shows a couple big gaskets and a filter that looks like the oil filter. Is there a fuel fllter?

Yes, its in the tank with the fuel pump.
It doesn't have any service intervals, only on the Diesel (which is under the RH wheelarch liner)
Only need to change it if you have a problem, or someone fills your tank up with sand or something!

Thanks so much, my car has 45,000 on it and with no filter replacement, I was getting worried. I would normally change a fuel filter every 25-30,000 miles.
