I will have a similar dilemma next summer, when my car will be 5 years old with less than 30,000 miles. In other markets the belt is fitted "for life", with inspections at higher mileages. I will certainly keep the second cam belt for more than 5 years.
My 2003 Focus had its changed at 10 years and 100,000 miles. Cam belts in Britain are obviously not what they used to be.

Ditto. My daughter's 2010 focus had its belt changed as the recommendation was 100k or 10 years. The car had done 86k and the technician said the old belt was good.
