2015 BMW 228 228i xDrive

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage certificate of title, with “FRONT END” shown as the primary damage classification. Stage 1’s photo review states that the visible evidence supports this classification, with extensive damage across the hood, front bumper, front fender, and one headlamp area. The front-end damage is severe. The hood is extensively crushed, sharply creased, and deformed, with a large uneven gap above the front fascia. The front corner fender is folded and heavily creased around the wheel opening. The front bumper cover and fascia are cracked, torn, displaced, and partially missing, exposing components behind them. Lower bumper grilles and trim are also missing or torn away. The headlamp on the damaged side is broken or absent, leaving an open cavity, and substantial portions of the surrounding front-end assembly are exposed with body and fascia components damaged or missing. Multiple safety restraints have deployed. These include the steering-wheel airbag, front passenger dashboard airbag, roof-side curtain airbag, and a front seat side airbag. The outer bolster of the affected front seat has torn leather upholstery and a separated seam around the deployed side airbag. The airbag systems, pretensioners, associated wiring, and impact sensors will require professional inspection and replacement as necessary. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2015 BMW 228i xDrive, a two-door coupe built by BMW AG in Germany. It has a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine and all-wheel drive. The VIN provided is WBA1F7C50FVX96180. The documented findings indicate major collision damage concentrated at the front of the vehicle, along with significant interior restraint-system deployment.
