2016 BMW 320 SA

The vehicle is a 2016 BMW 320i sedan, VIN WBA8E1G55GNT34093. Factory data identifies a gasoline 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 181 hp, manufactured by BMW AG in South Africa. Drivetrain and transmission details were not provided. Auction records list the vehicle as having a salvage title, with “FRONT END” recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1’s photo-review verdict states that the visible front-end damage supports the unverified FRONT END primary-damage claim; however, salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The documented damage is concentrated at the front corner. The hood has a pronounced crease, an uneven raised edge, and deformation around the corner. The front fender is dented and creased above and behind the front wheel. The front bumper corner shows multiple scuffs, scrapes, and gouges, with irregular surface damage. A dark lower trim or grille piece appears detached or missing, and an adjacent piece is hanging below the bumper. There is a pronounced open gap around the front headlamp and adjoining bumper and fender panels. The lower and inner edges of the headlamp area are separated, exposing dark internal or mounting areas. The findings do not confirm the condition of the headlamp assembly, its mounts, or any components behind the damaged panels. A physical inspection is recommended to check for hidden damage, panel and bumper mounting condition, headlamp operation and alignment, wheel-arch or suspension-related effects, and the operation of associated safety systems. Recall status was not checked.
