2018 MERCEDES-BENZ G G550 Base

This 2018 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is listed with a SALVAGE CERTIFICATE and the auction’s primary-damage classification is FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the FRONT END classification because the front bumper assembly is absent and front components are exposed. However, Stage 1 also reports that no clear structural deformation is visible and that the SALVAGE CERTIFICATE status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The front bumper assembly, including chrome bars and black mounting sections, is detached and lying on the ground. The bumper is missing from the vehicle, exposing the central and side cooling components, wiring, and mounting areas below the grille. The documented bumper damage is assessed as moderate. Further inspection is required to determine whether any concealed damage is present and to verify the condition of the exposed components and mounting points. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2018 Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV, G550 Base trim, built in Graz, Austria. It is equipped with a 4.0-liter gasoline V8 engine and has a GVWR in the 7,001–8,000 lb class. The VIN data does not specify the drivetrain or transmission.
