2016 MERCEDES-BENZ E E350-4M

The auction record lists a salvage certificate of title and identifies “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence partially supports the side-damage classification through scratches and scuffing on the rear side and bumper areas, but the photos do not show clear major side-impact deformation. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photos. Visible exterior damage includes detached or broken lower trim at the front bumper corner, with an opening and a protruding black fragment. Light scuffing and abrasion are also present on the lower front bumper. The right side of the rear bumper has several horizontal scratches and scuffed areas, including the lower corner. Additional light abrasion and white-colored scuff marks are visible around the left rear bumper corner and adjacent lower quarter-panel area. The leather covering on parts of the steering-wheel rim appears worn and discolored. Factory VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350-4M sedan with AWD, a 3.5-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and German manufacture. A physical inspection is recommended to assess the bumper mounting and trim, check for any underlying side or impact-related damage, and verify the vehicle’s mechanical and safety condition.
