Should a CAM Belt be changed every 60000 miles? Thanks

I think it depends on the year and model of scoob,I have a 2006 STI and mine needs replacing at 50000 miles.

MY92-MY99 45k or 3 years, whichever is first, MY00 60k or 4 years whichever is first.
Different on the new age cars, 5 years or 50k, whichever first.

Sam if you have just bought it do it now regardless and record this on the service book or make note.

Yeah i think i will. The CAM Belt was last changed at 29000 and now it's at 44000, but still i would like the peace of mind. I'm thinking a 60000 miles service which is a major one. Scoobyworks do it for £550ish including CAM Belt.
