Keep in mind the ASR1002 is also EoL, and only the configuration with 
upgraded RAM and ESP10 would meet your stated need for a full BGP table 
(the ESP2.5/5 does not have enough FIB memory to store the full routing 
table). The 1001-X offers the pay as you go model, so you may want to 
check with Cisco regarding FIB availability at different license price 
points. I believe the ASR9001 would also meet your needs; I don't have 
experience with the other options.
