Welcome to the real world.
No idea which Blackburn you call home. Is it the one in OZ, or UK, or maybe somewhere else?? Dont forget WWW means World Wide Web, and that is a huge place.
The locale of the car dictates the market, and most importantly, the features fitted by the factory for that market
My 96 X300 has NO pollen filter, which I believe is consistent with Aussie cars.

As Grant says, no cabin filter.
Poor heater performance is a fairly common affliction for these cars. There could be a number of causes and as you have already changed the stat, these would be my first things to check.
1. Blocked heater core. Unhook the hoses and try back flushing the core. If little to no water comes out the, core is probably blocked. Not easy to clear and generally means pulling out the core which is a pain.
2. Inoperative water valve. Put your hand on top of the valve and see if you can feel the solenoid cycling on and off. They get stuck so sometimes giving them a whack with a rubber mallet often does the trick. Best though to take it out and dismantle and clean. It is relatively easy to work on.
3. Inoperative electric heater water pump. Even if you can feel the the motor spinning, it does not mean that the vanes are moving as the impeller is connected to the motor by a magnetic coupling. The impeller can get clogged so you will need to dismantle and check. If the motor is not turning, the brushes may be worn.
It'll keep you off the streets for a day
