Ford,Peugeot,dayco website,autodata |
Well autodata says 149,000 miles for a HDi 
60,000 miles or 5 years is a general rule of thumb for many manufactures, even less if you do a lot of start stop driving.

Think you should do some research mate, and look into it. Many people on forums, mechanics and such say about 60k.
You don't have to be a taxi driver to do a lot of start-stop driving, some people might only drive in cities or use it for deliveries. Its taxi driver not cab driver, we aren't yanks.

The gti is 80k or 5 years whichever comes first and I believe all of the other models should be 60k or 5 years.
I had mine done at 95k which was pushing it a bit.
