2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLA GLA250-4M

The auction record lists the vehicle as “CERT OF SALVAGE > 75% DAMAGE,” with “REAR END” recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that visible rear-end damage supports the rear-end classification, but the photographs do not establish that total damage exceeds 75%. The most significant visible damage is at the left rear. The rear bumper cover is severely crushed and deeply creased, with torn and separated sections, open gaps exposing components behind it, and displacement of the lower-left bumper area. A plastic panel at the left rear wheel arch is also hanging down and detached from its normal position. Additional damage is visible at the front grille. The central Mercedes-Benz emblem is missing, leaving a circular opening with damage to the surrounding mounting area and trim. The grille center surround and lower center trim also contain broken and separated plastic pieces. The available findings document exterior collision damage at both the rear and front of the vehicle. A complete assessment of concealed structural, mechanical, electrical, and underbody condition would require a physical inspection.
