Hopefully you're firm on keeping it for a while. At the end of the day, its still a 2002 D2 with 160k miles.

I have a very rare vehicle that is way cleaner and in better mechanical condition than most new cars....you want to judge my Disco against other mundane POS Land Rovers than so be it. My Kalahari is clean,reliable and unique. Thanks for the interest.

Wow...did not think I would find cynical disco haters here but....

Not a hater, just a realist. I understand it is a "rare" vehicle, but some badging and interior doesnt negate the fact that it is a 12 year old car with 160k miles. Im not trying to be a dick, just honest. You will have far better luck with ebay.
And nobody ever used the words Land Rover and reliable in the same sentence before.

It is worth what it is worth to someone.
The new owners may pay a bit more, those who have suffered with their vehicles may be a bit more cautious. And best price ever for a D2 was $2000 by RoxieMoxie; who bought it as her first car. It had 117 garage kept miles on it, and oem gasoline.
At 160K head gaskets, plugs and wires, water pump, fan clutch, brakes; all these could need serious work at anytime.
Craigslist, fleaBay; all these are ways to market the truck. As is this site. Pictures are nice, try not to have a shiny truck and wet pavement, as it looks like the water sheen is hiding the faded paint.
How many times have you replaced the coolant? The answer should be 5, as in every 24 months or 30,000 - whichever comes first. And you may have, but many have not. How about the front driveshaft - upgraded to fully greaseable - or ready to chirp, snap, and beat a hole in the tranny?
Listing the "new" parts used is a double edge sword, some see it as things they won't have to do (like water pump and fan clutch); some see it as an omen.
You never know, a guy in a corner office may be looking for a well prepped toy to keep at his place in the mountains.
Good luck, and may a high sales price put you that much closer to a LR4.

new plugs
new water pump
new greaseable drive shaft
new head gasket
new coolant and new radiator
records of religious maintenance since new
the only issue is seat heater on drivers side is inop. very minor power steering leak. yes it has genuine gm cold climate 12345867 fluid.
I am a helicopter pilot. I take my maintenance pretty seriously. The suspension upgrade alone is worth $4k. When I say clean Rover I mean clean Rover.
There might be other janky Discos out there that need tons of work...mine is not one of them. Even if the motor blew up tomorrow you could throw a 4.6 in there and have more 4x4 truck than most people could dream of. Sure it needs lockers and all that farkle...but I am selling a vehicle that was 1 of 150. I doubt that there are still 150 of these on the road....so you are dealing with a fairly unique one of a kind ride. Oh....and it is yellow.

Btw....i would never drive an LR4....kinda like i'll never own a water cooled Porsche.
Besides...for what i am asking you could put $9k into my Kalahari and still be less than an LR4.

Let me know the next time you want a lift kit, boy do I have a deal for you.
Honestly; do you think badging adds $5000 to the price of your truck?
maybe it will in another 10-years or so?

I bet I don't have 4k wrapped up in my Fox shocks, Rovertym springs, trailing arms, radius arms, lockers, gears, axles, and Rovertym front and rear bumper! Just sold a set of RTE springs for 200 bucks!
