Used Nissan NV200 Scuttle Panel

The Nissan NV200 has been sold in the UK in a single generation, launched in 2009 and facelifted in 2013, and you should treat these as two distinct phases when sourcing a scuttle panel. Parts from pre-2013 vans may well differ in pressing or fitment points from post-2013 examples, so if your van sits on one side of that 2013 boundary and the donor sits on the other, confirm directly with the breaker using both registration numbers before buying.

The scuttle panel sits at the base of the windscreen between the bonnet and bulkhead, so wheelbase and roof height do not influence this particular panel – it is the same structural area regardless of whether your NV200 is a standard or long-wheelbase variant or has a high roof. Focus instead on the generation and whether the van is pre- or post-2013 facelift, and confirm the part number with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

The NV200 Combi (the window-van people-carrier version) and the electric e-NV200 share the same basic body shell and scuttle area as the standard panel van, so fitment is likely to carry across, but whether there are any pressing differences between these specific variants is something you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations rather than assume. Engine type and drivetrain – including electric versus diesel – do not affect the scuttle panel itself.

Trim level does not affect scuttle panel fitment on the NV200 – the panel itself is the same across SE, Acenta, Tekna and entry-level variants because it is a structural body component, not a trim-specific pressing. You may find cosmetic differences such as paint finish or whether a plastic cover strip is included, so check with the breaker what is actually included with the part, but the underlying panel will interchange across trim levels within the same generation phase.

These two vans sit either side of the 2013 facelift, which means the donor is a pre-facelift example and your van is a post-facelift one, and there is a real possibility that pressing or attachment-point differences exist between the two. Name both registrations to the breaker and ask them to check against their own stock to confirm compatibility before you commit to buying.

The scuttle panel is at the front of the van at the base of the windscreen, so the rear door configuration – barn doors versus a tailgate – has no bearing on fitment whatsoever. Concentrate on confirming the generation phase (pre- or post-2013 facelift) with the breaker, and you can disregard the rear door type entirely for this part.
