Question 1

What do rear end 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 115 recorded sales of the 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE with rear end damage, the median was $12,200, from $7,000 to $17,600. That is 27% above the $9,600 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $5,000 a good price for this 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

1314 comparable 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE listings sold at auction for a median of $9,600, spanning $5,200 to $15,200. At $5,000 this one went 48% below 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

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

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in CA - SAN DIEGO. 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 4

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

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE. 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.

Question 5

Is 197,512 miles high for a 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE listings at auction averaged 78,520 miles across 1314 sales, so at 197,512 miles this one sits 152% above 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 6

Who sold this 2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

The listing seller was FARMERS INSURANCE COMPANY OF FLEMINGTON. Seller type is a useful signal: insurers typically consign total-loss vehicles, rental and fleet operators consign on a cycle regardless of damage, and dealers consign trade-ins they do not want to retail. Each implies a different history behind the same damage label.
