2014 BMW 428I

The auction lists the primary damage as “Rear.” Stage 1’s photo review does not support substantial rear collision damage: only minor rear bumper-trim scuffing is visible, with no clearly visible significant rear-impact deformation. The visible exterior damage appears cosmetic. A small light-colored scuff is present on the lower front painted area near the front wheel opening, and the lower front bumper trim near the fog lamp shows light abrasion and localized finish wear. The lower rear bumper’s chrome-colored trim has scuffing, chipped finish, and additional light abrasion along the central and lower portions. The instrument cluster displays “Adaptive headlight malfunction” and “BRAKE.” It also displays “Driver restraint system” with restraint-system warning icons and a red “BRAKE” indicator. These warnings require diagnostic testing and physical inspection before the vehicle is considered roadworthy. The findings do not establish the cause of the warnings or confirm whether any collision-related repairs are complete. The VIN decodes as a 2014 BMW 428i coupe manufactured by BMW AG in Germany. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine; the supplied data does not specify the drivetrain or transmission.
