TIMING BELT...MILEAGE or AGE...???

[RallyDude]

Jo Fotoz,
Chances are your are not going to know where your going to breakdown and a timing belt isn't something you are going to repair roadside. If you don't mind getting towed for a few extra years of service, go ahead. But with ozone destroying the belt, wait for it to happen and then buy the belt and the new one should last longer.

With a spare belt and 200 miles AAA towing...

....I think its a good precaution.
