The Car By Car breakdown at
http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/index.php?url=/carbycar/index.htm says
this about the Focus diesel timing belts:

"35,000 miles still max for diesel timing belts."

Ford say 80k on the Di and 100k for the Ci, however I'd still do it at 40k
and say 60k repespectively due to the sheer guarrentee that it will break
long before Ford's change interval with resulting huge damage.

The previous Endura D / DE interval was 36k and they could break before
then!
