2016 BMW 328 xDrive SA

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a Certificate of Salvage and identifies “REAR END” as the primary damage classification. The visible evidence partially supports the rear-end damage claim: substantial deformation is present on the right rear quarter panel. However, the rear bumper, trunk, and left rear side do not show comparable visible damage. The Certificate of Salvage status cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The right rear quarter panel, above and behind the wheel arch, has a large, sharply creased depression extending toward the rear lamp and bumper junction. Light-colored abrasion and paint-transfer marks are also visible across the damaged area. The quarter-panel damage is assessed as moderate, while the paint scuffing is minor. The available findings do not establish the condition of concealed components, the rear structure, lighting, trunk alignment, suspension, or mechanical systems; these should be inspected before purchase and repair estimates are finalized. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2016 BMW 328i 3-Series sedan with xDrive all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a stated output of 241 horsepower. The vehicle was manufactured by BMW AG in South Africa.
