2022 MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER 2 907 (VS30)

The vehicle is listed with a “CERT OF TITLE–PARTS ONLY SALVG” designation, and the auction’s primary-damage claim is “BURN.” Stage 1 reports that this claim requires physical inspection and cannot be confirmed or assessed from the available photos alone. The supplied findings show severe damage throughout the vehicle. The front engine compartment is extensively blackened and heat-deformed, with exposed wiring, fragmented components, separated parts, and multiple assemblies missing or unidentifiable. The front-left cab, hood, roof edge, windshield opening, door area, bumper area, and surrounding body structure show widespread discoloration, surface loss, deformation, and component loss. The windshield and front side glazing are absent. The front fascia, lighting assemblies, exterior trim, and much of the front bumper assembly are missing, leaving the bumper beam exposed and separated from the surrounding bodywork. The right-side and rear body panels also show blackened discoloration, coating loss, corrosion-colored surface areas, and missing or damaged lower trim. The roof edge and front cab structure are visibly distorted, with an open roof section and missing glazing. At the rear, both doors and the surrounding bodywork have extensive discoloration and surface loss; exterior hardware, trim, the rear bumper, and rear lighting assemblies are absent. The cargo compartment has been stripped to exposed metal panels and flooring. Interior coverings, fixtures, wiring, and other installed components are missing, while the remaining floor and side panels show widespread blackened discoloration, residue, and coating loss. The driver compartment is also severely incomplete, with the dashboard, instrument-panel components, steering-area components, interior trim, front glazing, and wiring absent or visibly damaged. According to the VIN decoding information, this is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 (VS30) cargo van with a 2.2-liter OM651 diesel engine, 4x2 drivetrain, 144-inch wheelbase, and a stated GVWR in the 9,001–10,000 lb class. The decoder identifies the manufacturing plant as Charleston, South Carolina, USA. The VIN data also includes a warning that the model year may require reconfirmation, despite the provided vehicle year being 2022. Given the extensive structural, mechanical, electrical, exterior, and interior component loss documented in the findings, the vehicle should be treated as a major restoration or parts project. A thorough physical inspection would be required to determine the condition of the remaining structure, drivetrain, wiring, safety systems, and other concealed components.
