Cam Chain replaced at 85k, now on 120k. When do I need......

Not long had my car, and I know the previous owner replaced the cam chain replaced at 85k, and its now on 120k. When do I need to change it again???

I thought chains where more reliable than belts, but reading some of these posts, them seem to be more of a pain! :roll:

Cue Vocky 😉

never need to replace it again as the chain will now last the life of the car no time interval
