2011 MERCEDES-BENZ E E350 4-MATIC

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate of title and an unverified auction primary-damage classification of FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, citing extensive damage to the hood, bumper, grille, headlamps, cooling area, and front support components. The front end has severe collision damage. The hood is substantially deformed along its front edge and both corners. Both headlamp assemblies have broken or shattered outer lenses, with internal components exposed, particularly on the left front side. The front bumper fascia is torn and deformed across the center and corners, while sections of the center grille are missing and broken plastic is visible. The radiator and condenser area is exposed, with bent cooling fins and deformation to the surrounding supports. Upper and lower front radiator support bars and brackets are visibly bent, displaced, or broken. One front corner also has missing and broken fascia material, exposed internal components, and irregular deformation around the headlamp and bumper junction. Inside the cabin, the front driver’s seat cushion has a moderate tear through its center section, with surrounding abrasion and worn upholstery. The steering-wheel rim shows minor wear and abrasion in several areas. The supplied findings document extensive visible front-end structural and component damage, but do not establish the condition of concealed mechanical, cooling, electrical, restraint, or alignment-related systems. A thorough physical inspection and functional assessment would be required before purchase.
