Nah, probably just still in. 56 plates would be the turn of year 3 for it.

Another waiting for the "recommended service interval" to come up then. I don't know how car manufacturers get away with saying that the belt will last so long. They very rarely do.

There are plenty of engines out there that will out-last their recommended interval. The Ford Zetec is one to name a few. In support of your claim, however, there are the Vauxhall Ecotec's which have had to constantly have their service interval revised due to the heaps of shit letting go. When will they learn that a water pump isn't a good item to run from such a critical item such as a timing belt :)
