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
- 12-month extension age ceiling / Residual tolerance for PCP extension / Residual pressure is compressing uplift on disposal and extension routes.
- Primary blockers
- 12-month extension age ceiling / Residual tolerance for PCP extension / Negative equity escalation trigger / EV age review trigger
- Required release
- Not required
| Route | Status | Release Gate | Delta | Value | Rationale | Constraint |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Extend 12 Months | Lead / Recommended | Approval required / Validator | £10,337 | £21,228 | 12-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable. | - |
| Re-Lease | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £7,684 | £18,575 | Re-lease holds the strongest retained-value position while mileage, vehicle age, and clean payment posture remain inside tolerance. | - |
| Extend 6 Months | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | £6,870 | £17,761 | 6-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable. | - |
| Trade Sale | Baseline / Current Plan | Approval required / Validator | £0 | £10,891 | Trade Sale Disposal is commercially credible for this ev case, but current Trade Sale headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Auction | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | -£531 | £10,360 | Auction Disposal is commercially credible for this ev case, but current Auction headroom is binding and a lower-friction route can clear sooner. | - |
| Manual Review | Permitted | Approval required / Validator | -£839 | £10,052 | 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 | £968 | £11,859 | Blocked by policy: Digital retail segment eligibility. | Blocked by Digital retail segment eligibility. |
