timing belt question

[big_jarrs]

hi, i have just purchased a 2001 freelander 18.i. It has just reached 60,000km
on the clock and have been tring to find out when timing belt is scheduled for
replacement.I have read somewhere that apparently 60,000m is when it should be replaced.It was serviced by a land rover dealer last year at 49500km and have not been informed of state of belt or when replacement due. I live in Spain and temperatures can be in around the high 30's Oc.
Can anyone give me some advice .
Thanks

I will check the service manual and repost if this is wrong but from memory a freelander is a 6.5 hour job and is done at the 100,000 km mark. I am just not sure if this covers the 01 model.

Just checked my Service and Repair Manual - the 1.8 petrol engine is every 60,000km - better get it done know!!
