2023 MERCEDES-BENZ GLB AMG GLB35

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a “CERT OF TITLE SLVG REBUILDABLE” status, with “FRONT END” recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible hood deformation, front bumper scuffing, and detached front bumper trim support the stated FRONT END damage code. The salvage/rebuildable title status cannot be confirmed from the photographs alone. The main damage is concentrated at the front of the vehicle. The hood has a broad, uneven depression and deformation along its front section, with an irregular gap above the grille. Multiple additional dents and areas of chipped or missing paint are visible across the hood, including near the leading edge. The front bumper cover and lower fascia have several dark scrape marks and surface scuffs. A long black section of lower front bumper trim is detached and was observed lying separately from the vehicle. A deployed driver airbag is visible in the steering wheel, with additional deployed fabric below the dashboard and around the driver-side interior. This indicates that the restraint system will require thorough inspection and likely replacement of affected components before the vehicle can be considered road-ready. The photographs also show light scuffing on the lower driver-side front and rear doors, as well as light black scrape marks on the lower rear bumper. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class AMG GLB35 sport utility vehicle, manufactured in Mexico. The decoded specifications include a turbocharged 2.0-litre, four-cylinder gasoline M260 engine, an eight-speed automated manual transmission, and a stated output of 302 horsepower.

A complete structural, restraint-system, bumper-mounting, electrical, and mechanical inspection is recommended before purchase or repair.
