2021 MERCEDES-BENZ C C300-4M

The vehicle is listed with an MV-907A salvage certificate, and the auction identifies the primary damage as “FRONT END.” Stage 1’s assessment states that the visible severe front-end collision damage supports this primary-damage code; however, the salvage-certificate status itself cannot be confirmed from photographs. The vehicle has extensive damage across the front end. The front bumper, grille, hood edge, fenders, headlamp surrounds, and radiator-support area are cracked, crushed, torn, displaced, or missing. Internal components are exposed, particularly at both front corners, and the front-right headlamp assembly is absent or substantially missing. The front-left bodywork is heavily deformed around the fender, wheel-arch area, bumper, and the panel near the front door. The left exterior side mirror is also missing, with broken mounting material, wiring, and detached components visible. The hood is creased and deformed along the front-left edge. A detached black plastic front-end component was recorded on the pavement. Small glass fragments are visible in the driver-side footwell near the pedals and seat base. Additional cosmetic damage consists of light scuffing and paint transfer on the right-rear quarter panel and rear bumper corner, as well as white scuff marks on the left-rear bumper corner. The VIN decodes as a 2021 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan, trim C300-4M, with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and a seven-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz Cars in East London, South Africa. The supplied data does not identify the drivetrain beyond the trim designation. Because of the severity and extent of the visible front-end damage, a complete inspection is required to determine the condition of the structure, suspension, steering, cooling system, lighting, restraint systems, wiring, and other components that are not confirmed by the supplied findings. Roadworthiness and mechanical operation should not be assumed.
