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 / Residual pressure is compressing uplift on disposal and extension routes.
Primary blockers
Stressed payment manual review / Treatment posture exception route / Negative equity escalation trigger / Customer-support treatment review

-
Extend 12 MonthsPermittedApproval required / Validator£2,707£10,612
12-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable.
-
Extend 6 MonthsPermittedApproval required / Validator£2,321£10,226
6-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable.
-
Digital RetailPermittedApproval required / Validator£1,174£9,080
Digital Retail Disposal is commercially credible for this suv case, but current Digital Retail headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner.
-
Trade SalePermittedApproval required / Validator£422£8,327
Trade sale clears the vehicle with stronger execution certainty once carrying cost and channel friction are priced into the route.
-
AuctionBaseline / Current PlanApproval required / Validator£0£7,906
Auction is the fastest credible exit once mileage, condition, and time-to-clear pressure are priced into the decision.
-
Manual ReviewPermittedApproval required / Validator-£234£7,671
Manual review is being held as the controlled path because treatment, arrears, or policy friction prevents straight-through release.
