Cheap Peugeot Expert Roof Panel

The Expert has run across two main generations in the UK: the first generation covered roughly 1995 to 2006, and the second generation ran from 2007 to 2016, with the third generation arriving from 2016 onwards. Each generation sits on a completely different platform with different body pressings, so a roof panel from one generation will not cross to another. Stick to sourcing within the same generation as your vehicle.

Both 2010 and 2014 fall within the second-generation Expert (2007–2016), so they share the same platform and the roof panel should be the same pressing. However, mid-generation pressing changes can occasionally occur without being widely publicised, so confirm against your registration with the breaker before purchasing. Wheelbase (standard or long) must also match, as the roof length differs between them.

Yes, wheelbase is critical for a van roof panel – a long-wheelbase Expert has a physically longer roof than the standard-wheelbase version, and the two are not interchangeable. Always tell the breaker whether your vehicle is the standard or long wheelbase when requesting a quote. Getting this wrong is one of the most common fitment mistakes on van roof panels.

Roof height is a fundamental dimension for a van roof panel, and a high-roof pressing is a completely different panel from a standard-roof one. Make sure you know whether your Expert is a standard roof or an elevated/high roof before approaching a breaker. Fitting the wrong roof height is not a minor cosmetic difference – the panels will not align with the bodywork.

It can matter because the rear aperture pressing at the back edge of the roof panel may differ between barn-door and tailgate variants to suit the different closing arrangements. Confirm with the breaker that the donor vehicle's rear door configuration matches yours before agreeing a sale. This is especially worth checking on third-generation (2016-on) vehicles where both configurations were offered alongside each other.

Body style matters significantly: the Combi and Tepee passenger variants share the same basic shell as the panel van within a generation, but confirm with the breaker that the donor vehicle's exact body style and door count match yours, as glazed apertures can affect the roof pressing. Trim level – whether your van is entry-level, Professional, or another grade – does not affect which roof panel fits, so you do not need to match trim. Bear in mind that trim-specific roof features such as roof bars or a different finish may mean a used panel looks slightly different cosmetically even when dimensionally correct.
