Second Hand Peugeot Boxer Bonnet

The Boxer has run in two main generations on the UK market: the first generation (X230 platform) ran from 1994 to 2006, and the second generation (X250 platform) ran from 2006 onwards, receiving a facelift around 2014 which updated the front-end styling including the grille and surround. Within each generation and facelift period, bonnets are generally shared regardless of wheelbase or roof height, as the front-end structure is common across the van range. Always quote your exact registration to the breaker so they can confirm the correct facelift variant.

This is a question that spans the 2014 facelift boundary on the second-generation (X250) Boxer, after which the front-end panels and styling were revised. Both years sit within the X250 generation, but because the 2014 facelift changed the front end, you should confirm directly with the breaker whether the pre-2014 and post-2014 bonnets interchange on your specific vehicle. Do not assume they are a straight swap without that verification.

No — these are from different generations: 2005 is first generation (X230, 1994–2006) and 2008 is second generation (X250, 2006 onwards), and the two platforms have different front-end structures. A bonnet from the X230 will not fit an X250 Boxer, so make sure the breaker confirms the part is from a 2006-or-later X250 vehicle to match your 2008.

Trim level does not affect bonnet fitment on the Boxer — the bonnet is the same panel across specifications such as Professional, Asphaltе, or any other grade within the same generation and facelift period. The only things that matter are the generation (X230 or X250) and whether the vehicle is pre- or post-2014 facelift. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as badge placement or paintwork finish, but the panel itself is interchangeable within the correct period.

Yes, the bonnet is a front-end panel shared across the Boxer range within a given generation and facelift period, regardless of body style such as panel van, chassis cab, or window van. The key factors are generation and facelift period, not the body configuration behind the cab. Confirm the year and facelift period with the breaker against your registration to make sure you are getting the right panel.

The simplest way is to give the breaker your full registration number, which they can use to identify your exact specification and match it to their stock. Visually, the 2014 facelift introduced a revised grille and front-end styling on the X250, so a bonnet from the wrong facelift period may not align correctly with your headlights and grille. Always ask the breaker to confirm the donor vehicle's year before purchasing.
