The Tigra was produced in two distinct generations: the original Tigra A (1994–2000) and the Tigra B (2004–2009), which was a separate platform sold as a hardtop roadster. Bonnets from the Tigra A will not fit a Tigra B and vice versa, so always confirm which generation your car belongs to when sourcing a used part. Give your registration to the breaker to make sure you're matched to the right generation.
The Tigra B ran from 2004 to 2009 on a single platform without a significant facelift that altered the bonnet panel itself, so a 2005 and a 2008 are generally the same generation. That said, confirm with the breaker against your registration to be certain there are no minor production changes that could affect fit. Never assume fitment without the breaker checking your specific car.
The Tigra A ran from 1994 to 2000, and across that run the front-end panel remained consistent within the generation. A bonnet from a 1994 car should correspond to the same platform as a 1999 car, making them broadly compatible. Confirm with the breaker against your registration before purchase, as minor production variations can occasionally exist.
Trim level does not affect bonnet fitment on the Tigra — the panel is shared across trim variants within the same generation. You may find that different trims had different paint colours or optional badging, so be prepared for cosmetic differences such as a missing badge recess or a different colour code. The key things to match are generation and paint code, not trim level.
No, the Tigra A bonnet is specific to the Tigra A platform and is not shared with the Corsa B or Calibra despite those models being contemporaries in the Vauxhall range. Each model had its own distinct front-end styling and panel dimensions. Source a bonnet specifically listed for the Tigra A and confirm with the breaker using your registration.
Engine choice has no bearing on bonnet fitment for the Tigra — the bonnet panel is the same regardless of whether the donor car had a 1.4, 1.6, or any other engine option. Focus on matching the generation rather than the engine when speaking to a breaker. Confirm against your registration to make sure the breaker is supplying from the correct platform.
