Timing Belt

I have a 2004 Vauxhall Astra van 1.7 DTI. Currently 70,000 miles on the clock. At what milage does the timing belt need changing? Thanks

I could be wrong but I thought that they should be replaced every 60,000 miles. Maybe some last longer than others?

The belt is supposed to be changed every 10 years or 90,000 mls/150,000 km whichever is sooner.
