I went through this myself recently, it all depends on whether the right purchaser is out there, i was lucky enough to showcase it on ebay and i got the right money for it complete, but i did have some riduculous offers that made me consider stripping the bits and selling it standard, i might have made a few more £££ this way but it would have been a lot of trouble and a bloody shame to break up my previous pride and joy.
In short keep your options open, set yourself a time limit based on need to get a new vehicle etc, if someone out there wants it they will pay the right money, would there be any mileage in asking for a swap, my impression is that lots of people would trade a disco for a defender.
Good luck.
