Depends on year but pretty certain facelift ones do... A colleague had a '55 facelift 150bhp auto and that had one... No end of shit with it...

i see there are many places that can do away with them altogether now

Has to been done on the sly, otherwise Mr MoT gets quite irritable...

At least the slush box doesn't have a Dual Mass Flywheel

If you're after one then buy either the 1.8 petrol or the 120 bhp diseasel

dont fancy the 120 version mate, only because my current 2.2 dti will have more guts than it and dont fancy petrol again

A chipped 120 will be more reliable than the 150

1.8 is rev happy and bombproof from personal experience

cheaper to buy than diesel ones too and fuel is cheaper so running costs are pretty much the same...
