2015 BMW 328I XDRIVE

The auction lists the primary damage as “Right Side.” Separately, Stage 1’s photo review states that the visible evidence does not support the claimed right-side damage: the major visible damage is concentrated on the left side, while the right side appears substantially intact in the available photos. The documented damage is concentrated around the left rear door. The door is severely crushed and deeply folded across most of its outer panel, center, and lower sections, with exposed and torn metal and an irregular lower edge. The left rear door glass is missing, leaving the window opening exposed. The front edge of the rear door opening and adjacent door-jamb area also show exposed, irregularly damaged metal and trim. The lower rear section of the left front door has moderate deformation, heavy black abrasion, and paint transfer. The left rocker panel below the doors has scraping, paint transfer, localized deformation, and an irregular lower edge. Minor linear scratches and scuffing are also visible on the left rear quarter panel and adjacent upper trunk-side area. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2015 BMW 328i 3-Series sedan with xDrive all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a reported output of 240 horsepower. The vehicle was manufactured by BMW AG in South Africa.
