What parts do you hoard?

Well I checked in my garage and I have spares of these;

All Brand new

LR Discs Front
LR Discs Back
LR Pads Front
LR Pads Back
LR Break Pad sensor Front
LR Break Pad Sensor rear
LR Leather Steering Wheel
LR Gear Knob
LR Stornaway Colour Coded Wheel Arches (except F/O/S used)
LR Clutch
LR Rear baggage area cover

I bought all of these as they are items not included in the WD warranty and are likely to wear out over time, the Baggage cover, Steering wheel and gear knob are for a refresh in years to come although the car is still like new but they may be harder to source then, the clutch is something that may eventually go but with price rises at least it's here on the shelf when required. The brakes and discs are just consumables so will be used.

Is there anything else I could/should invest in?

And more importantly what do you have hoarded?

If you list it I may see something worth making you an offer on Laughing

You obviously have too much time and Money !
I can't wait till retirement, have you thought about investing in a plot and a wooden box ?
Funeral expenses are going through the roof !

LR parts certainly do go up but for a man of your means I doubt you would even notice the increase ?

Perhaps buy some "body" parts which aren't covered by BUPA or NHS - just in case you need them !...........and sell the plot Thumbs Up

I could build a D2 with all the spare parts I have for them. Not many for the D4 yet.
