When to replace timing belt? 850 1995

I asked this before, but it probably got lost as it was tagged onto another thread.

I recently purchased a '95 850 Turbo with 38,000 miles on it. Okay, the mileage says I shouldn't need to replace the timing belt for another 30K or so, but the car is 8 years old. I don't want to trash the engine by neglecting this fairly easy fix (I'd have the dealer do it). Question: do I go by actual mileage and apparent care the car has had (it is pristine inside and under the hood) or by its age?
