Have you read Gates view on timing belts in the above attached PDF Simon?

Perhaps they are not as knowledgeable as yourself, or have a vested interest in "scaring" people into avoiding serious engine damage

Just get the job done, and stop advising people that good maintenance techniques should be ignored based on your good luck........after all no one would be impressed if you told them you changed your engine oil every three years, simply because you only cover 5000 miles P.A.
