yeah you can usually inspect it pretty easily if you are willing to spend some time and do it, just take a look at it.. If there are no cracks, splits, etc then you're probably fine but another thing to think about is after so long the belt will get looser and the car will not perform as well. Even if the belt looks ok, its still not a bad idea to replace it at 60k or 65k like mitsubishi says. I got about 5000 miles to go and I'll be doing mine wether it looks good or not.... (Sure glad I only got 55000 on my 95 RS though!)
