Question 1

Was $5,700 a good price for this 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS?

Accepted Answer

38 comparable 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS listings sold at auction for a median of $7,600, spanning $3,800 to $15,950. At $5,700 this one went 25% 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 2

How much below its undamaged value did this MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS's pre-damage retail value at $12,500. It sold for $5,700 — 54% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 3

What does a clean title mean for this MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS?

Accepted Answer

This 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS was sold on a clean title. A clean title means no total-loss brand was recorded at the point of sale, which is unusual at salvage auctions and typically lifts the price.

Question 4

This MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS has minor dent/scratches and normal wear damage — how does that affect it?

Accepted Answer

Damage recorded in two areas usually points to a heavier impact than either label suggests on its own, and it raises the odds of structural damage behind the panels. The auction records the primary and secondary areas only; it does not assess the frame. Photographs and, where available, a physical inspection are the only way to judge how far it goes.

Question 5

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

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS. 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 6

Is 248,917 miles high for a 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2021 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS listings at auction averaged 100,174 miles across 38 sales, so at 248,917 miles this one sits 148% 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.
