2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC GLC300

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLC is listed with a salvage certificate of title, and the auction’s unverified primary-damage classification is “SIDE.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this side-damage claim: dents, creasing, and scraped areas are visible on the left-side doors and rear wheel-arch area. Stage 1 also notes that the salvage title cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The main exterior damage is concentrated on the left side. The left rear door has broad inward deformation with multiple horizontal creases, extending from the middle of the panel toward the lower edge. Additional contour irregularities and dents continue across the lower and middle sections of the left rear door and toward the adjacent front door area. The front edge of the left rear wheel opening and the lower side panel have extensive scuffing and scraping, with lighter exposed surfaces visible. Scraped paint and dark abrasion marks are also present along the lower edge of the left rear door and the adjacent rocker-side area. Inside, the driver’s seat shows minor upholstery damage. A dark elongated tear or worn-through opening is visible on the front portion of the lower cushion and outer bolster, along with multiple linear cracks and worn areas on the lower cushion.
