2016 BMW 328 xDrive SA

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title with “FRONT END” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive front-end damage supports the front-end classification, while the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The vehicle has severe collision damage concentrated across the front end. The hood is substantially buckled and creased across the front section, with a raised, uneven edge and broad gaps above the grille and headlamps. The front bumper cover is cracked, torn, and partially missing, with exposed internal components, open lower-corner areas, and a detached or hanging lower bumper piece. The front corner headlamp area is severely damaged. The headlamp on the vehicle’s right side as viewed from the front is displaced, and surrounding fascia is broken or absent. The front fenders are also deformed, with pronounced creasing and crushed areas around the wheel opening and adjacent hood and headlamp junction. Panel separation and substantially uneven gaps are visible, with internal components exposed. The available findings do not establish the condition of the underlying structure, cooling system, suspension, steering, engine, or safety systems. A minor horizontal scuff is present on the lower center-right portion of the rear bumper. No additional damage findings are provided. The VIN decodes as a 2016 BMW 328i 3-Series sedan in the xDrive trim, with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 241 horsepower. The vehicle was manufactured by BMW AG in South Africa. A physical inspection and complete mechanical, structural, electrical, and safety-system evaluation are recommended before purchase, together with verification of the title status and repair history.
