2020 MERCEDES-BENZ C C300-4M

The auction record lists the vehicle as “PERMIT NO BRAND – UNFIT” and identifies the primary damage as “FRONT END.” The visible evidence supports the FRONT END damage classification through extensive damage to the front fascia, hood, headlamps, and cooling area. The permit/no-brand/unfit title status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The hood is severely deformed, with an uneven raised position and visible distortion along the front edge and both front corners. The front bumper cover is missing from its installed position and is also shown detached on the ground, with separated edges and mounting areas. Both front headlamp assemblies are absent from the vehicle; one detached lamp assembly has visibly broken and separated housing and lens components. The front fender edge next to the hood and headlamp opening is moderately deformed, with an irregular shape and an open gap. The exposed radiator/condenser cooling core has multiple wrinkled and bent fin sections. A lower front undertray panel is detached and lying separately on the ground. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2020 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan, identified as a C300-4M, with a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder gasoline engine, a seven-speed automatic transmission, and an 18-inch wheel configuration. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz Cars in Vance, Alabama, USA. A full inspection should verify the condition of the underlying cooling, structural, electrical, restraint, and driver-assistance systems before repair or purchase.
