Route Comparison
Recommended route, challengers, and release posture
- Winning rationale
- 12-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable.
- Lead positive drivers
- Irregular payment review trigger / Auction fallback threshold / Residual pressure is compressing uplift on disposal and extension routes.
- Primary blockers
- Irregular payment review trigger / Auction fallback threshold / 12-month extension age ceiling / Residual tolerance for PCP extension
- Required release
- Validator
| Route | Status | Release Gate | Delta | Value | Rationale | Constraint |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Extend 12 Months | Lead / Selected / Recommended | Approval required / Validator | £10,157 | £17,060 | 12-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable. | - |
| Re-Lease | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £7,464 | £14,367 | Re-lease holds the strongest retained-value position while mileage, vehicle age, and irregular payment posture remain inside tolerance. | - |
| Extend 6 Months | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £6,814 | £13,717 | 6-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable. | - |
| Trade Sale | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £395 | £7,298 | Trade Sale Disposal is commercially credible for this van case, but current Trade Sale headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Auction | Baseline / Current Plan | Approval required / Validator | £0 | £6,903 | Auction Disposal is commercially credible for this van case, but current Auction headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Manual Review | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | -£217 | £6,686 | Manual review is being held as the controlled path because treatment, arrears, or policy friction prevents straight-through release. | - |
| Digital Retail | Blocked | No approval gate | £1,096 | £7,999 | Blocked by policy: Digital retail segment eligibility. | Blocked by Digital retail segment eligibility. |
