yeah man,do it...if it snaps you'll cry...don't take chances with timing belts,and how hard it's been driving has nothing to do with it at all I would have done it a 50k miles/80k kilometers

As far as mileage goes, I would follow the manufacturer's guidance, but don't let it go beyond 10 years on an interference engine. The belt will be the least of your worries.
