2016 MERCEDES-BENZ GLA GLA250-4M

The vehicle is a 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLA. The auction record lists the condition as “Certificate of Title” and identifies “Front End” as the primary damage. However, Stage 1’s photo review found no clear visible front-end collision damage and concluded that this claim is not supported by the provided photos. The visible exterior damage consists of a broad, shallow dent with an irregular surface contour across the middle section of the front door outer panel. The dent is assessed as moderate collision damage. The interior shows several cosmetic issues. The driver’s seat has localized abrasion and surface wear on the outer lower/side bolster. The center armrest has a localized area of peeling with multiple visible cracks. Several light scuffs and small marks are also present on the center-console cover panels. A physical inspection is recommended to verify the condition of the front end and to check for any damage or mechanical issues not visible in the available images.
