Yes it will fit, but bear in mind the torsion bars will be less stiff and possibly the ARB also. And make sure it's not a basic model with drum brakes.

As above, it's a lesser spec than the GTi/HDi Dturbo beams.

Still works though if it's a disc beam as I got one free to chuck on my HDi when my first beam died.

what engine do these 'meridians' have?

as the (original) beam on my 1.8 is identical to one of a 6; torsion bars, brakes, everything

some were 1.4's, some DT's, and possibly HDI as well, may have been 1.8 later.

your Francorchamps is a sport spec car though, Meridian was not.

Meridians were available with 1.4, 1.6, 1.8 petrol and 2.0 HDi. All had ½ leather interior, crystal headlamps, Ph3 sport front bumper and a couple of electric toys that didn't come standard on the LX models but at a lower price to shift all the last 306s before being replaced by the 307
