Fix it or ditch it, buy new or used, lend the car or not, who pays for the dent, is the extended warranty a trap. Car calls judged by drivers.
Jurors drive commuter hatchbacks, vans, EVs and the occasional project car; a few turn wrenches for a living. They judge the decision, not the badge.
How cases are written here: first person, the car, the numbers and what each option costs you. Name the sides by the choice ("Repair it" / "Sell it as is"), never "petrolhead" against "clueless".
