Question 1

What do front end 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 172 recorded sales of the 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE with front end damage, the median was $8,800, from $4,050 to $15,300. That is 8% below the $9,525 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $8,300 a good price for this 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

397 comparable 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE listings sold at auction for a median of $9,525, spanning $4,400 to $16,000. At $8,300 this one went 13% 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 S-KLASSE from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in AL - MONTGOMERY. The nearest major vehicle export port is New Orleans, roughly 350 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $300-$425, 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 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-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 149,341 miles high for a 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE listings at auction averaged 90,318 miles across 397 sales, so at 149,341 miles this one sits 65% 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 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

The listing seller was PROGRESSIVE. 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.
