    When my husband had to finish his lease for medical reasons (licence temporally revoked). They sent someone out to pick the car up. Later when he got PIPed he took the car back to the dealer himself; If I remember correctly he could have had them pick up the vehicle, but would have missed out on the ‘transitional support package’. The taxi fair home used up half of his PIP standard rate mobility allowance. Bit of a kick in the face from the government, that of the couple of times he is allowed to leave the house, one was to hand back the car, that used to allow him unlimited (allowing for fuel) trips out. He was able to go out again several months later after I got my car (which he drives for me), only for both of us to be locked in for 2 years because of Covid.
