A user on Indie Hackers pointed out that it would be worthwhile to have the data exported in a human-readable format as well for selling the car.

Love the idea. I agree with others that perhaps there is a better name out there...something to better capture the car nature of the product (I don't have a specific suggestion for you - sorry).

A feature that I would personally love to have on this app, is the ability to export and share all maintenance records. I love wrenching on my car vs. taking it to the shop, but it can be hard to capture my work. Proof of maintenance during sale shows owner diligence, and can even help command a higher sale price and encourage the transaction. If there was a nifty way to validate and share this work with prospective buyers, I think it would greatly improve your app's attractiveness (that would personally be my biggest attraction to the product).

Best of luck.

Turns out I'm the author of the pdf rendering and printing for dart/flutter. That's a good fit. We can even imagine the app being a trusted source of information for buyers if we can verify that the data were entered regularly, with the right recommended service dates and milage.

If you stick with Sembast it's easy to export the data to a json file for saving. The user could then do whatever they want with the data.
