Cambelt Change?

After how many miles should I change the cambelt on my Vauxhall Vectra 1.9 cdti (150) 2006 model

Per Honest John's website:
On 1.9CDTI, timing belt drives waterpump and waterpump failure can fling it off in as little as 40k miles, wrecking the engine. By December 2008 this was becoming increasingly common at about 4 years old and circa 50k - 60k miles. So engines need new belts, tensioners, pulleys and waterpumps before 4 years old or 50k miles.
