2012 MERCEDES-BENZ C C350

The vehicle is a 2012 Mercedes-Benz C-Class listed with a “RED REBUILT FLOOD” condition designation and “FRONT END” as the auction’s primary damage classification. These are auction claims rather than independently established facts. The provided photo review found no visible tide line, water staining, mud or silt residue, mold-like discoloration, seat-rail or seatbelt corrosion, or visible wiring corrosion. The instrument cluster was also reported to display normally. Based on the visible evidence, the flood claim is not supported. The visible damage does support the stated front-end damage classification. Damage is concentrated at the front-left corner. The hood edge near the headlamp is moderately deformed, raised, and has an irregular panel gap. The front-left fender is also visibly deformed around the headlamp and wheel-arch area. The bumper cover has an irregular edge and an open gap below the headlamp, with a section of the black corner trim or cover missing. Light-colored scuffing is present on the left side of the front bumper. The visible headlamp lenses show minor diffuse clouding. A physical inspection should confirm the condition and alignment of the front-end components, bumper attachments, lighting system, and any underlying structure before purchase.
