2014 MERCEDES-BENZ SLK SLK250

The vehicle is a 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class SLK250 convertible, identified by VIN WDDPK4HAXEF086165. NHTSA decoding indicates a gasoline-powered 1.8-liter, four-cylinder engine, manufactured by Mercedes-Benz Cars in Germany. The VIN decoded cleanly, although some manufacturer-provided information was unavailable. The auction lists the primary damage as “REAR END.” Visible evidence supports this classification: the complete rear bumper cover is missing, exposing the bumper mounting structure and other components behind the rear fascia. The left rear bumper corner and the full rear bumper area are affected. The detached bumper cover is present separately and has multiple scraped and abraded areas on its inner and lower surfaces. No additional damage is established by the provided findings. The vehicle is listed with a salvage title. This title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The exposed rear bumper area and any related mounting points, underlying components, lighting, sensors, exhaust components, and body structure should be physically inspected before purchase. Repair requirements, alignment, and the condition of any unseen parts cannot be determined from these findings.
