2017 MERCEDES-BENZ E 300 E300

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz E 300 is recorded with a “Clear” auction condition and “Hail” as the primary damage classification. These are auction designations rather than verified mechanical or physical findings. Stage 1’s photo-based assessment states that the hail claim is not supported by a dense hail-dent pattern: the roof and trunk appear largely smooth, while the hood shows only a few faint, shallow depressions rather than numerous concentrated dents. The visible damage includes several minor, shallow dents across the hood. The paint appears continuous, with no visible cracking or chipping. Light scuffing and pale marks are present on the lower outer corner of the front bumper, along with a thin horizontal scuff across the center-right bumper area below the grille. The front wheel-arch inner liner is visibly absent or incomplete, leaving an irregular exposed area behind the tire. This is the most significant listed exterior issue and should be inspected for damage to adjacent components and corrected before regular use. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a German-built 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan with the E300 trim, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 241 horsepower, and an automatic transmission. The decoded equipment includes standard ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, forward-collision warning, and a rear-visibility system; several driver-assistance features are listed as optional.
