Second Hand BMW i7 Rear Tailgate

The BMW i7 is a single-generation model launched in 2022 (internal codename G70), so all i7s share the same platform and body style, meaning tailgates from any 2022-onwards i7 are potentially compatible with one another. There have been no confirmed facelift pressing changes as of 2024, so year-to-year swaps within the range are likely straightforward, but always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.

Both the 2023 and 2024 i7 sit on the same G70 generation with no confirmed mid-generation body changes, so fitment is likely the same across those years. That said, if there have been any subtle pressing updates between model years, the breaker will be best placed to check the part number against your specific registration to be sure.

The i7 shares its G70 platform with the 2022-onwards petrol and plug-in hybrid 7 Series (G70 body), so a tailgate from that generation of 7 Series may well interchange with an i7. However, whether specific panel variants sold under the 7 Series and i7 names differ in any pressing detail is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as subtle differences can exist between powertrain variants on the same platform.

Trim level does not affect tailgate fitment on the i7; the G70 body shell is the same regardless of whether you have an eDrive50, xDrive60, or M70 xDrive. You may find cosmetic differences such as M Sport badging, differing trim finishes, or camera aperture details depending on the specification of the donor car, so make sure any cosmetic features on the replacement panel match what you need.

The i7 is only offered as a four-door saloon in the UK market, so there are no estate or hatchback body style variants to worry about when sourcing a tailgate — all G70 i7s use the same rear body style. This keeps the search straightforward, but always quote your registration to the breaker so they can cross-reference the exact part number.

Yes, sourcing a second-hand tailgate from a dismantled i7 is exactly what UK breakers specialise in, and because the i7 is a single G70-generation model, any donor i7 from 2022 onwards is a strong candidate. Make sure the breaker checks the part against your registration for colour code, camera or sensor cutouts, and any badging, so the panel matches your car as closely as possible.
