Fitment questions

What years does the Peugeot 306 cover, and does the year of the donor car affect whether the rear panel fits mine?

The Peugeot 306 ran from 1993 to 2002 as a single generation on one platform, with a facelift arriving in 1997 that updated the front end styling significantly. For the rear panel specifically, year alone is less critical than body style — hatch, saloon, and estate rear panels are completely different pressings and will not interchange with each other. Confirm the body style of the donor car matches yours exactly before ordering, and always verify the part against your registration with the breaker.

Will a rear panel from a pre-facelift 306 (pre-1997) fit a post-facelift 306 (1997 onwards)?

Both generations share the same underlying platform, and the 1997 facelift was primarily focused on the front of the car, so rear panel pressings may well be compatible across that boundary. However, whether a specific pressing changed mid-generation or between facelift and pre-facelift cars is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume. Body style must still match — a hatch rear panel from either era will not fit a saloon or estate regardless of year.

Does it matter if the 306 is a 3-door or 5-door hatch when looking for a rear panel?

Yes, door count matters for the rear panel on a hatchback body style, as the aperture and quarter pressings differ between 3-door and 5-door variants. Make sure the donor car's door count matches your own, and mention both your body style and door count when requesting a quote from a breaker. Engine size and trim level make no difference to rear panel fitment.

Does trim level affect which rear panel I need — for example, does an XR, XSi, or SR need a different panel to a basic 306?

Trim level does not affect rear panel fitment on the 306 — the pressing is determined by body style and door count, not whether the car is an SR, XR, XSi, or any other trim. You may find cosmetic differences such as varying paint codes or badging between trims, but the panel itself will be the same shape. Simply match body style and door count and you're selecting on the right criteria.

Is the rear panel on a 306 estate the same as on a 306 hatch or saloon?

No — the estate, hatch, and saloon all have entirely different rear panels, as each body style has a distinct tail structure, boot/tailgate aperture, and closing pressings. These will not interchange under any circumstances, so body style is the first thing to confirm when contacting a breaker. Always state your exact body style and door count when requesting a quote to avoid being sent the wrong part.

Does engine size or gearbox type make any difference to which rear panel fits my 306?

No — engine size, fuel type, and gearbox make absolutely no difference to rear panel fitment on the 306. The panel is a bodywork pressing determined entirely by body style (hatch, saloon, or estate) and door count. You can safely ignore engine and trim details when searching, but do confirm the exact body style and door count with the breaker against your registration.
