Magna water pump

My Mitsubishi Magna has done nearly 90,000 km and is due for a timing belt replacement, and I was wondering if I should have the water pump replaced at the same time? I so what would I have to pay for parts and labour to have it done?

The Magna generally doesn't have a problem with the water pump, and Mitsubishi specialist Graham Lewis tells us he has customers who have had three belt changes without changing the water pump. He does, however, advise checking for any coolant staining, and if found, then change the pump. Otherwise, the pump generally doesn't give any trouble.
