Sell your damaged Mercedes-Benz A-Class

An A-Class that has been declared uneconomical to repair almost always comes down to one thing: the technology packed into a compact body. The MBUX screens, the electric power steering rack, the multi-stage airbag system and the sensor-laden bumpers give the car a repair bill profile that belongs to a much larger vehicle, but the resale value of a small hatch. Younger drivers make up a large share of A-Class owners in South Africa, and higher accident exposure in that group is reflected directly in how many damaged W176 and W177 cars come to market each year.

Which Mercedes-Benz A-Class years we buy

Damaged A-Class models from the 2005 W169, the 2012 W176 and the 2018 W177 all fall within what we buy, including AMG derivatives.

Mercedes-Benz A-Class derivatives we buy

We buy every Mercedes-Benz A-Class derivative, petrol or diesel, manual or automatic. The ones we are asked about most often are:

  • A-Class A200
  • A-Class A200d
  • A-Class A250 Sport
  • A-Class A35 AMG
  • A-Class A45 AMG

Damage we see on the Mercedes-Benz A-Class

Kerb, pothole and low-obstacle strikes cause a disproportionate share of A-Class claims because of the low front lip and large-diameter wheels, and a cracked subframe or bent lower control arm on an AMG-optioned car is often terminal. Full-frontal impacts destroy the entire radar and camera suite behind the grille, and interior airbag replacement after a side impact regularly costs more than the shell is worth.

Whether your Mercedes-Benz A-Class has accident damage, flood or hail damage, a blown engine, or has been written off by an insurer as a Code 2, Code 3 or Code 4 vehicle, we will make you an offer. It does not need to run, and it does not need to be roadworthy.
