Default Servicing - Cambelt at 45K or 60K??

Different dealers are telling me different things. One is telling me that the 45K serivce is a big one with cambelt etc (£450+VAT)but another says cause I have the later engine (EJ205) that is doesnt need to be done until 60K and is only charging (£180 inc VAT)

Now because of the way I drive the car I am probably going to get the cam belt done anyway for safetys sake but why are two different subaru offical dealers giving me dsuch different info?

Should I go for the £180 one and get them to do the cam belt at the same time surely the labour and parts for a cam belt cannot come to £250 +VAT???

I am confused, thoughts people?

"highly modded" i think you're right to get it done at 45k.
