2014 BMW X3 xDrive28i

The auction record lists a Salvage Certificate of Title and classifies the primary damage as “minor dent/scratches.” Stage 1 reports that the photographs show minor surface scratches consistent with this damage code, but no definite dent is visibly confirmed. The salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The documented visible damage is cosmetic and minor. Several thin, light horizontal scratches are present on the side door panels. The rear seat cushion and lower seatback have broad areas of discoloration and staining. A light-colored worn or abraded patch is visible on the front portion of the center-console armrest. The black trim along the upper edge of the instrument cluster shows abrasion and irregular openings. No mechanical or structural findings are provided in the supplied assessment, so the vehicle’s mechanical condition requires separate inspection and testing. The VIN decode identifies this vehicle as a 2014 BMW X3 xDrive28i, an all-wheel-drive SUV with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine. The vehicle was manufactured in Greer, South Carolina, United States.
