Vehicle Inspection Report

Vehicle Inspection Report

Overview: Overall, the G550 is in decent condition for the miles. There appears to be no signs of poor paint work. Cosmetically the vehicle is in the condition one would expect to be in with these miles and being a 2018. However, the front bumper is misaligned, appearing to be pushed in on the driver side more so than the passenger side. The bumper is rubbing on the front driver wheel flare. The hood is also misaligned, showing more of a gap at the base of the hood on the driver side compared to the passenger side. After close inspection of the passenger side, with reported damage, little to no signs of poor repair is present. The underside does not appear to be affected. There are minor scratches throughout that can be seen in the photos. There is an odd cosmetic blemish of a small dent on the driver side front of the roof. The interior has above average wear notably on the steering wheel and driver side center console. On the test drive there was a slight but noticeable rattle at all speeds, which may be a loose component somewhere behind the dash or a loose item elsewhere. No warning lights were present at the time of the inspection, these vehicles are notorious for throwing a warning or code if any issue is present. The vehicle started fine and did not show any signs of major mechanical issues. The only mechanical issue of notes was the slight smell of coolant. While there were no signs of leaking, there was still a slight smell, which is somewhat common on the high-performance Mercedes Engines. The chassis showed no signs of rust from a visual inspection, and there was nothing that seemed out of place. The bushings to the radius arms did show signs of slight wear. The tires look like they will have been replaced together in 2022. The tires were worn evenly and had decent treatment left. Overall, the G550 is in decent condition, with notable above average wear items.
