No two boot lids are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
The current V-Class (W447) launched in 2014 and is the generation most commonly seen in UK breakers; it received a facelift in 2019 that brought styling updates to the rear, so a pre-facelift boot lid from 2014–2018 and a post-facelift lid from 2019 onwards are not the same pressing. Always identify which side of that 2019 boundary your vehicle sits on before ordering. Confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker.
These sit either side of the W447 facelift boundary — the 2017 vehicle is pre-facelift (2014–2018) and the 2021 is post-facelift (2019 onwards), and the rear pressing changed at that point. In practice this means the lids are unlikely to interchange directly, but whether a specific used panel will fit your exact vehicle is something you must confirm with the breaker against your registration number.
On the V-Class the boot lid is a tailgate or barn-door arrangement at the very rear of the vehicle, and the wheelbase (standard versus extra-long) affects the length of the body in the middle rather than the rear aperture itself, so the lid itself is generally the same item across wheelbases within the same generation. However, if your V-Class has barn doors rather than a single tailgate, those are entirely different panels, so make sure you specify the correct door configuration to the breaker. Always confirm fitment against your registration to be certain.
Trim level does not drive a different body pressing for the boot lid on the V-Class — the aperture and hinge points are the same regardless of whether the vehicle is a standard, Sport, or AMG Line variant. What can differ is the badging, trim finishers, and whether a rear wiper or camera is present, so a lid sourced from a different trim may need swapping of ancillaries or respraying to match. The breaker can advise on which ancillaries are included with the panel they have in stock.
No: a single-piece tailgate and barn doors are fundamentally different assemblies involving different body aperture preparation, latches, and hinges, so they are not interchangeable. You need to source the same door configuration as your original vehicle — confirm this with the breaker and quote your registration so they can verify the correct type.
The colour does not affect whether the panel physically fits your V-Class, but a boot lid in a different colour will need a full respray to match your vehicle before it looks correct. Many buyers deliberately source an unpainted or different-coloured lid from a breaker at lower cost and have it painted separately, which is perfectly normal practice. Ask the breaker whether the lid is supplied bare or still carries the previous vehicle's paint so you can budget accordingly.
