The vehicle must be returned in the same condition, except for normal wear and tear. The tenant can never invoke force majeure/emergency, etc. against the landlord to justify the damage/disappearance to the landlord. The renter accepts that, unless an amicable settlement has been reached, in the event of damage or damage to the vehicle, an independent and recognized car expert will be appointed by the lessor to determine the costs and duration of the repair and, if necessary, to determine whether it is normal or abnormal wear.
