-
Re-LeasePermittedApproval required / Validator£5,924£23,175
Re-lease holds the strongest retained-value position while mileage, vehicle age, and watch payment posture remain inside tolerance.
-
Extend 6 MonthsPermittedApproval required / Validator£5,055£22,306
6-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable.
-
Trade SalePermittedApproval required / Validator£749£18,001
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.
-
AuctionBaseline / Current PlanApproval required / Validator£0£17,252
Auction Disposal is commercially credible for this van case, but current Auction headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner.
-
Manual ReviewPermittedApproval required / Validator-£456£16,796
Manual review is being held as the controlled path because treatment, arrears, or policy friction prevents straight-through release.
