2018 MERCEDES-BENZ S 560 4MATIC

The auction lists the primary damage as “Left & Right Side.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, with extensive damage observed on both sides of the vehicle. The left rear door has severe creasing, deep dents, and irregular deformation across the outer panel. The adjacent left rear quarter panel, including the area around the door opening and wheel arch, is also deformed and has scraped paint. Additional scrape marks and paint transfer are visible along the lower left rear door and rocker-panel area. The right rear quarter panel shows extensive, severe crushing and sharp creasing from the rear-door area toward the wheel arch and rear lamp. The deformation continues above and behind the rear wheel, leaving the wheel-arch edge irregular and the paint heavily scraped. The right rear bumper cover has multiple broad scrape marks and light-colored paint transfer. There is visible separation at the bumper-to-quarter-panel junction, and trim or a fastening cover is missing from the right rear wheel-arch and bumper edge, exposing the underlying attachment area and clips. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2018 Mercedes-Benz S-Class S 560 4MATIC sedan, manufactured in Germany. It is equipped with a 4.0-liter turbocharged gasoline V8 engine, all-wheel drive, and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The documented damage is concentrated at the rear sections of both sides, particularly the left rear door and quarter panel and the right rear quarter panel, wheel-arch area, and bumper. The condition of structural components, suspension, wheel alignment, sensors, lighting, and mechanical systems is not established by these findings and should be verified through a thorough physical inspection.
