Used BMW 5 Series Boot Lid

No — the E39 (1995–2003) and E60 (2003–2010) are completely different generations with different body shells, so the boot lids are not interchangeable. You need to source a lid from the correct generation for your car. Always confirm the exact generation with the breaker using your registration.

The E60 saloon ran from 2003 to 2010 with a facelift introduced in 2007, and while the basic shell remained the same generation, there can be mid-generation pressing or feature changes between pre- and post-facelift panels. You should name the boundary — 2007 facelift — clearly when contacting a breaker, and ask them to confirm the part number matches your specific build date before buying.

No — the saloon and Touring estate use completely different rear body structures and the boot lid from one will not fit the other. For the saloon you need a conventional hinged metal boot lid, whereas the Touring uses a full tailgate that opens upward over the load area. Always specify your exact body style to the breaker.

Trim level — whether SE, Sport, M Sport, or M5 — does not affect which boot lid fits on the same generation and body style. However, be aware that an M Sport or M5 lid may carry a different spoiler lip or badge-mounting points, so there could be minor cosmetic differences to expect if you're fitting a lid from a different trim. The breaker can advise on any visible trim differences before you buy.

No — the F10 (2010–2017) and G30 (2017 onwards) are separate generations built on different platforms, and their boot lids are not interchangeable. Always source a lid from the same generation as your car and confirm this with the breaker using your registration number.

Both 2014 and 2016 fall within the F10 generation (2010–2017), so on the face of it they are the same generation and body style. However, whether any mid-generation pressing changes affect panel interchange within the F10 is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before purchasing.
