Default Insurance question: Fix or accept buyout?

Hello,

I have a 2007 Toyota Yaris. In August, there was considerable hail damage during the big storm. My window is cracked, and my hood, roof, and back have dozens of nickel-sized dents in it.

We went to our insurance company, and they said they are giving us the option of fixing it, which they would pay $7000 for body work, or $9800 to write it off. It's more convenient to have it fixed, but I'm worried that I will not get as much, if I ever try and sell it.

I am relatively new to Alberta, but what would you suggest I do in this situation? The Yaris engine runs great, and it has just under 150,000 km on it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
