2016 MERCEDES-BENZ C C300-4M

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz C is listed with a Certificate of Title, and the auction’s stated primary damage is FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this classification, with substantial damage at the hood, grille, bumper, and front fascia. The hood is severely crushed, with pronounced creasing and deformation along the leading edge and center-right section. Its front edge is displaced above the grille. The front bumper cover is severely torn, cracked, and detached across both visible corners and the center, with sections hanging below the vehicle or separated from it. Internal components and mounting areas are exposed. The front grille and surrounding trim are severely broken and displaced, with missing sections and gaps around the Mercedes emblem area. The front-right fascia below and beside the headlamp has cracked and displaced blue-painted material, with open gaps around the headlamp and lower intake. Radiator or condenser surfaces and other front-end cooling components are visibly exposed behind the damaged or missing grille and bumper sections. Further inspection is required to determine the condition of components behind the visible exterior damage. Inside, the driver’s seat cushion and outer bolster have multiple tears, worn-through areas, and dark discoloration. The front center armrest has extensive cracking and surface separation. The rear seat lower cushion shows minor tears and wear. Overall, the vehicle has substantial front-end collision damage, along with moderate interior upholstery wear and damage. Repair requirements may include extensive replacement and inspection of the hood, bumper assembly, grille, fascia, mounting structures, exposed cooling components, and potentially other components not assessable from the available findings.
