Question 1

What do front end 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 10 recorded sales of the 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS with front end damage, the median was $6,000, from $4,150 to $8,000. That is 22% above the $4,900 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $6,000 a good price for this 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS?

Accepted Answer

34 comparable 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS listings sold at auction for a median of $4,900, spanning $4,000 to $7,600. At $6,000 this one went 22% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 3

What does a salvage certificate (p) mean for this MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS?

Accepted Answer

This 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS was sold on a salvage certificate (p). A salvage title means an insurer declared the vehicle a total loss. Repairing it and passing a state inspection can convert it to a rebuilt title, which stays on the record permanently and affects resale value.

Question 4

Is 40,493 miles high for a 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS listings at auction averaged 101,805 miles across 34 sales, so at 40,493 miles this one sits 60% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.

Question 5

How far is this MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in CA - LONG BEACH. The nearest major vehicle export port is Long Beach, roughly 200 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $250-$350, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 6

What does "RUNS AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

RUNS AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS. It means the vehicle started and moved under its own power during a brief check at the yard. It is not a mechanical inspection and says nothing about how far it would drive. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.
