2016 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC GLC300 Base-4M

The vehicle is listed as a 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class with a PUBLIC – SALVAGE TITLE and an auction primary-damage classification of FRONT END. The auction’s FRONT END classification is supported by the reported visible damage to the hood, grille, front fascia, and bumper area. The PUBLIC – SALVAGE TITLE status cannot be verified from the photographs. The hood has severe deformation, including extensive creasing and sharp folds across the front and center sections. Its front edge is folded downward and uneven. The front grille is severely damaged, with broken and missing sections around the Mercedes emblem, open gaps, and exposed components behind it. The chrome grille trim is bent and displaced, and the emblem assembly is separated from its normal position. The front bumper cover has moderate damage at the center and vehicle-right corner, including gaps, broken edges, displaced plastic, and visible internal components. The upper front fascia beneath the hood is also open and irregular, with separated trim and exposed areas between the hood, grille, and headlamp assemblies. According to the VIN decoding, this is a German-built 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class SUV, identified as a GLC300 Base-4M with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 241 horsepower. The VIN data identifies the M274 engine but does not provide the drivetrain or transmission details. A thorough inspection should be completed to determine the condition of concealed components, mounting points, cooling systems, lighting assemblies, sensors, and other systems behind the visibly damaged front-end structure.
