Do I buy out lease at end of term?

2024 Cross Sport SE with Tech, inside last year of lease, drives well 23k on it so far, residual payoff is quite high, I like the car, it drives well, so is it a solid option to flip the lease when it comes up or just hand it back and get in to a new(er) one?

I know there are many factors, not least that a new CS will not be in the showrooms until mid 2027 which is beyond the end of my lease by 6 months, individual finance comes in to play always of course, just looking to get some thoughts from the community

Other things that I consider, are related to warranty and service costs over time, getting a new(er) one brings the warranty and possibly service covered for some time, buying out the lease means I have almost no warranty and servicing is on me.

Oh and I am a VW guy, so not looking to go to another brand regardless
