Most Peugeots are due about 60K i think, I'm sure that was the case with my old Rallye. Although they and the GTi-6 have a reputation for breaking cambelts early, hence most owners in the know do them around the 50k mark or earlier.

I'd say if the one you are looking at is over 60k then make sure the cambelt has been done. And also the tensioners etc have been done at the same time.

Haynes Manual says change it every 72,000, but my peugeot book just says the dealer will advise you when it needs done model dependant.

I'll warn you now its an interesting one to do yourself as well, access down that end of the engine is restrictive to say the least.
