Used Vauxhall Meriva Bonnet

The Meriva was built across two generations: the A (2003–2010) and the B (2010–2017), and bonnets are not interchangeable between these two generations as the front-end design is completely different. Within each generation, bonnets are generally shared across the range regardless of engine or trim level. Always confirm the exact fit with the breaker using your registration number.

The Meriva B received a facelift in 2014, which brought changes to the front-end styling including the grille and lights. Both pre-facelift (2010–2014) and post-facelift (2014–2017) cars are Meriva B generation, but whether the bonnet itself interchanges across that 2014 boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as panel shapes can subtly change at facelifts.

A 2012 Meriva B and a 2016 Meriva B are the same generation, but the 2014 facelift sits between those two years, meaning there may be differences in front-end panel design. The bonnet may or may not interchange across that facelift boundary, so give the breaker both registrations and let them verify compatibility before you buy.

Trim level does not affect bonnet fitment on the Meriva — the bonnet panel itself is the same across trims such as Expression, Exclusiv, SE, and Elite within the same generation and facelift period. You may find that higher-spec cars have a different paint finish or badging, but the bonnet itself will be the same pressing. Focus your search on matching the generation and facelift year rather than the trim name.

The Meriva A ran from 2003 to 2010, and bonnets from within that generation are generally compatible with one another. Engine choice and trim level make no difference to bonnet fitment, so a breaker with any Meriva A in stock should be able to help. It is still worth confirming against your registration to rule out any minor production changes.

No — engine type has no bearing on bonnet fitment for the Meriva, as the bonnet panel is the same regardless of whether the donor car was petrol or diesel. What matters is that the donor car is the same generation (A or B) and the same facelift period as yours. Confirm the year and registration details with the breaker to be sure you are getting the right panel.
