The correct answer is 120,000/TEN years providing you are on the standard service shedule, drive under "normal conditions" according to the "magic trade book" I won't mention.
However, I have heard of these engines dropping them earlier, I don't like the idea of leaving a diesel belt on that long, but I wouldn't say you should be panicing desperately yet.

6 years or 60k would be my limit better to be safe than sorry
mines a 2004 model and the belts not been changed yet, should i get mine done, ive done 34k miles0 -
peugeot told me 100k or every 10 years. peugeot garage told me 5 years of 100k
The car is French so it's anyone's guess ! It will go 100Km before anybody tells you it - will with a Gallic shrug, just to be a s*d.
This vehicle is made by a nation that drove around in corrugated tin sheds until just a couple of year's ago. Now they specialise in 'vehicle's' that cost more to service that the Space Shuttle.0 -
