Used Vauxhall Agila Fuel Tank

The Agila was sold in the UK in two generations: the A (2000–2004) and the B (2004–2007). Fuel tanks are generally generation-specific, so a tank from another Agila A should be your starting point if you have an early car, and likewise for the B. Always confirm with the breaker against your registration, as mounting or ancillary details can vary within a generation.

A 2003 Agila is a late Agila A, while a 2005 is an Agila B — these are different generations with a body and platform change in 2004, so a straight swap across that boundary is unlikely. Name the generation boundary clearly when contacting breakers and ask them to check the part against your specific registration before purchasing. Never assume cross-generation fitment without the breaker's confirmation.

Yes — the engine code is the most reliable guide for mechanical parts including the fuel tank, because petrol and diesel variants can use different tank configurations and sender unit setups. Check your V5 logbook or run a VIN check to find your exact engine code, and supply it to the breaker when requesting a quote. Fuel type (petrol or diesel) is the critical starting point, but the engine code gives the breaker the precise detail they need.

No — trim level does not affect fuel tank fitment on the Agila; a tank from a Club will fit a Design or Expression of the same generation and engine type. What matters is the generation (A or B), the engine code, and the fuel type, not the badge on the tailgate. You may find minor cosmetic differences on surrounding trim panels from a donor car, but the tank itself is not trim-dependent.

In most cases the gearbox type does not directly determine the fuel tank itself, but it is worth mentioning to the breaker because automatic and manual variants could have differences in surrounding components or tunnel packaging on certain models. Supply your full engine code, fuel type, and gearbox type when asking for a quote so the breaker can cross-reference against the donor vehicle. It is a quick detail to share and rules out any fitment doubt before the part is dispatched.

Mileage does not affect fitment at all; what matters is that the donor car shares the same generation, engine code, and fuel type as yours. A high-mileage Agila from a breaker's yard with matching spec is perfectly valid as a donor, provided the tank itself is clean, undamaged, and free from corrosion. Ask the breaker to inspect the tank and sender unit condition before agreeing the sale.
