Second Hand Vauxhall Zafira Rear Bumper

The Zafira ran across two clear generations in the UK: the Zafira A (1999–2005) and the Zafira B (2005–2014), with the Zafira B receiving a facelift in 2008. Rear bumpers are generation-specific, so an A-generation bumper will not fit a B-generation car and vice versa. Within each generation, confirm with the breaker against your registration whether the pressing matches pre- or post-facelift, as the 2008 update on the B may have brought bumper styling changes.

These two cars sit either side of the Zafira B's 2008 facelift, so while both are B-generation (2005–2014), the rear bumper styling may differ between the pre-facelift (2005–2008) and facelift (2008–2014) cars. You should not assume they are a straight swap; confirm with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing. The generation is the same, but crossing the 2008 facelift boundary is a detail the breaker will need to check for you.

No — engine size has no bearing on rear bumper fitment for the Zafira. Whether your car is a 1.6, 1.8, 2.0T or a diesel, the rear bumper is determined by the generation (A or B), model year, and whether it is pre- or post-facelift. Focus your search on the year and generation rather than the engine, and you will not narrow yourself out of compatible parts.

Trim level does not affect rear bumper fitment on the Zafira — a bumper from a Club, Life, Design, or Elite will all fit the same generation and year car. You may find cosmetic differences such as the presence or absence of parking sensor holes or different paint code requirements, so check those details with the breaker. The underlying bumper shell and mounting points are the same across the trim range for a given generation.

No — the Zafira Tourer is a distinct model (2011 onwards) with a different body and should be treated as a separate vehicle for parts purposes. Do not assume a Zafira B bumper will cross over to a Tourer even if the years overlap. Confirm with the breaker using the specific registration of whichever car you are sourcing for, as these are different platforms with different rear-end pressing.

The Zafira A and B were sold across Europe as Opel Zafira and were built on the same platforms, so panels may well be identical, but subtle differences between market-specific variants cannot be guaranteed. This is exactly the kind of cross-badge fitment question you should confirm with the breaker against your specific registration rather than assume either way. A UK breaker sourcing from a European donor car should be able to check this for you before you commit.
