Route Comparison
Recommended route, challengers, and release posture
- Winning rationale
- Re-lease holds the strongest retained-value position while mileage, vehicle age, and stressed payment posture remain inside tolerance.
- Lead positive drivers
- Stressed payment manual review / Treatment posture exception route / Mileage performance supports retained-value actions.
- Primary blockers
- Stressed payment manual review / Treatment posture exception route / Customer-support treatment review / Policy review route requires validator release
- Required release
- Not required
| Route | Status | Release Gate | Delta | Value | Rationale | Constraint |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Re-Lease | Lead / Recommended | Approval required / Validator | £4,958 | £33,903 | Re-lease holds the strongest retained-value position while mileage, vehicle age, and stressed payment posture remain inside tolerance. | - |
| Extend 6 Months | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £3,630 | £32,575 | 6-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable. | - |
| Digital Retail | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £3,518 | £32,463 | Digital Retail Disposal is commercially credible for this premium case, but current Digital Retail headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Extend 12 Months | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £3,226 | £32,171 | 12-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable. | - |
| Trade Sale | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £1,210 | £30,155 | Trade Sale Disposal is commercially credible for this premium case, but current Trade Sale headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Auction | Baseline / Current Plan | Approval required / Validator | £0 | £28,945 | Auction Disposal is commercially credible for this premium case, but current Auction headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Manual Review | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | -£767 | £28,178 | Manual review is being held as the controlled path because treatment, arrears, or policy friction prevents straight-through release. | - |
